Method

Ingredients

Step 1In a large bowl, mix together the flour and yoghurt with a dash of olive oil and a good pinch of salt. Knead for a couple of minutes on a floured surface until the dough is springy, then divide into two balls
Step 2With a rolling pin, roll each ball into a large oval or circle of about 2mm thick. Be careful not to roll so thin that it is in danger of tearing.
Step 3Place a wide pan over a medium-high heat for 2-3 minutes to warm up. Add one of the flatbreads to the pan. When it has started to slightly puff up and go golden on the underside, turn the dough with a spatula in a confident movement and cook for a couple more minutes on the other side. Repeat with the remaining flatbread.
Step 4Meanwhile make the pesto. Place the basil, almonds, garlic, Parmesan and 30ml olive oil in a pestle and mortar and grind until you achieve a creamy pesto consistency. Stir in the lemon juice and season to taste.
Step 5To plate up, top the flatbreads with the artichokes, blobs of burrata, a few basil leaves and finally drizzle over the pesto.

¾ cup self-raising flour
⅓ cup + 1 tbsp full-fat Greek yogurt
1 cup artichoke hearts (drained)
1 ball burrata
1 clove garlic
⅓ cup toasted almonds or pine nuts
1½ cups basil leaves (loosely packed, plus extra to garnish)
