Ingredients for 8 servings:

  • 500 g flour
  • ½ sachet of dry yeast
  • ½ sachet of baking powder
  • 75 ml oil
  • 100 g yogurt
  • 1 pinch(s) salt
  • 3 eggs
  • 300 g chicken breast
  • some oil
  • 2 onions, red, chopped
  • 2 small garlic cloves
  • 1 tbsp, heaped tomato paste
  • 1 tsp sambal oelek
  • 100 g feta cheese, crumbled
  • salt and pepper
  • sesame
  • Black cumin

Instructions

Working time approx. 1 hour; Rest time approx. 1 hour; Cooking/baking time approx. 10 minutes; Total time approx. 2 hours 10 minutes

The recipe is for about 8 pieces: Knead the flour, dried yeast, baking powder, oil, yogurt (I used the one with 0.1% fat), 2 eggs and a pinch of salt into a dough and let it rise for about 1 hour. For the filling, chop the chicken breast very finely and fry in a little oil, add the onion and the crushed garlic. Add the tomato paste, sambal oelek, salt, pepper and the feta. Remove from the heat and let cool slightly. Divide the dough into 8 roughly equal-sized balls and roll them out thinly on a floured surface. Spread the filling evenly on top, fold the flatbreads into half-moons and press the edges together. Brush with beaten egg and sprinkle with sesame seeds and black cumin seeds. Bake at 200°C fan (preheated) for about 10 minutes.
