Method

  1. 1

    Mix plain flour with a pinch of salt and enough yoghurt to form a soft dough. Knead for 2 minutes, cover and rest for 15 minutes.

  2. 2

    Heat oil in a pan and fry crushed garlic and sliced green chilli for 30 seconds. Add spinach and wilt for 2 minutes. Season with garam masala and cumin, then squeeze out excess liquid. Crumble in paneer and mix well.

  3. 3

    Divide dough into 4 balls. Roll each out, place a quarter of the filling in the centre and fold the dough around it. Flatten gently and roll out again to a rough circle.

  4. 4

    Cook each stuffed flatbread in a dry hot frying pan for 2–3 minutes per side until golden with charred spots.

  5. 5

    Brush each flatbread with butter as it comes off the heat.

  6. 6

    Serve hot, cut into wedges with extra yoghurt on the side.
