Prep Time 30 minutes
Cook Time 1 hour
Servings: 8 flatbreads

Ingredients
  

Flatbread dough
  • 300 g cooked riced or mashed potato lukewarm or at room temperature
  • 25 g whole psyllium husk or 21 g psyllium powder
  • 330 g lukewarm water
  • 180 g millet flour plus extra for rolling
  • 30 g sorghum flour
  • 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp ground black pepper
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 50 g coarsely grated cheddar
  • 6 tbsp chopped fresh parsley
Finishing butter
  • 55 g unsalted butter melted

Method
 

  1. If starting with raw potatoes, boil them skin-on until fork-tender, roughly 30 minutes. Drain, cool until warm, peel and rice. Weigh 300 g cooked potato. Alternatively use 300 g plain leftover mash that is not very rich in cream or butter.
  2. Mix psyllium and lukewarm water and let gel for 30–45 seconds. Combine millet, sorghum, baking powder, salt, pepper and garlic powder separately.
  3. Add the potato, cheddar, parsley and dry mixture to the gel. Knead until smooth and springy without unmixed gel or dry patches. If necessary adjust with at most about 1 tbsp extra water or millet flour, according to the dough consistency.
  4. Divide into eight portions, roughly 115 g each, and round them. Keep covered while working. Roll each on a lightly floured surface to about 9–9 1/2 inches wide and 1–2 mm thick. Separate rolled flatbreads with parchment and keep covered.
  5. Heat a large dry skillet over medium to medium-high heat. Cook the first side for 60–75 seconds, until golden spots form. Flip, brush the cooked side with melted butter and cook the second side about 1 minute.
  6. Flip again, brush the new upper side with butter and cook about 45 seconds. Flip a final time and cook about 30 seconds. Adjust heat to get deep brown spots without burning. Stack cooked flatbreads on a paper-towel-lined plate.

Notes

The cooking allowance includes boiling fresh potatoes; using suitable leftover mash shortens preparation.
Refrigerate sealed leftovers for 2–3 days. Reheat in the microwave 30–45 seconds, or lightly mist with water and warm covered in a skillet for 30–45 seconds per side.
Contains: Milk from cheddar and butter. Check individual flours and preparation surfaces.
Use the specified flour and binder amounts. Check packaged ingredient labels and avoid gluten cross-contact.
