Ingredients:
Instructions:
- In a small bowl, combine the yeast with 1/4 cup of warm water (not hot, around 110°F/43°C). Stir and let it sit for about 5 minutes until it becomes foamy.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour and salt.
- Add the activated yeast mixture, minced garlic, chopped rosemary, and olive oil into the flour mixture.
- Gradually add more warm water (about 3/4 cup) while mixing until a soft dough forms.
- On a floured surface, knead the dough for about 5-7 minutes until it becomes smooth and elastic.
- Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover it with plastic wrap or a damp kitchen towel, and allow it to rise in a warm place for about 1 hour, or until it has doubled in size.
- In a medium bowl, combine the crumbled feta cheese, lemon zest, lemon juice, and paprika.
- Stir well until all ingredients are smoothly integrated.
- Taste the dip and adjust seasoning if necessary, adding more lemon juice or paprika for your desired flavor.
- Preheat your grill or grill pan to medium-high heat.
- Divide the dough into equal portions (4-6 pieces).
- Roll out each portion on a floured surface into thin rounds or ovals.
- Lightly brush each flatbread with olive oil on both sides.
- Grill each flatbread for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until they have nice grill marks and are cooked through.
- Serve the warm grilled flatbreads on a platter.
- Place the lemon feta dip in a serving bowl alongside the flatbreads.
- Garnish the dip with a sprinkle of paprika or some additional lemon zest if desired.
- Tear pieces of the grilled flatbread and dip them into the refreshing lemon feta dip. Enjoy this flavorful appetizer or snack!
Tips:
- Ensure the yeast is fully dissolved in lukewarm water before adding to the dough mixture to ensure proper rise.
- When grilling the flatbread, make sure your grill is hot to achieve those iconic scorch marks, enhancing both flavor and presentation.
- For a creamier dip, consider blending the feta cheese with a tablespoon of olive oil.
- Feel free to adjust the amount of lemon zest and juice according to your taste preference – more for a zesty kick, less for a milder flavor.
- To add a bit of heat, sprinkle a pinch of red pepper flakes into the lemon feta dip.
There you have it – a delectable serving of grilled flatbread with a refreshing lemon feta dip. This dish not only impresses with its balanced flavors but also with its ease of preparation. Enjoy this delightful treat with friends and family or as a satisfying snack on its own.
