Ingredients
  • 250 g plain flour
  • 2 tsp. caster sugar
  • ½ tsp. salt
  • ½ tsp. baking powder
  • 120 ml whole milk
  • 2 tbsp. vegetable oil, plus extra for drizzling
  • FOR THE RAITA
  • 250 g Greek yoghurt
  • ½ clove garlic, crushed
  • 2.5cm piece of ginger, peeled and grated
  • Juice of ½ lime
  • ½ tsp. garam masala
  • ½ cucumber, seeds removed, grated and squeezed in kitchen roll
  • Optional toppings: freshly chopped coriander, black onion seed, poppy seeds
Instructions
  1. Sift flour, sugar, salt and baking powder into a bowl and make a well. Mix the milk and oil in a jug and pour into the well a little at a time gradually drawing in the flour as you stir, until you have a soft dough. Tip onto a floured surface and knead for 10 minutes until smooth. Place in an oiled bowl and cover with oiled cling film and leave to rise for about 15mins.
  2. Meanwhile make the raita: combine all ingredients in a bowl and season well.
  3. Tip dough out onto a floured surface and knead briefly before dividing into 4 balls. Roll each into a rough oval shape, press any desired toppings into the dough then place onto a greased baking sheet and sprinkle with water. Grill for 2 mins per side, drizzle with oil and serve with raita.
