Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Can I use a different type of flour for the flatbread dough?
A: Yes, you can substitute all-purpose flour with whole wheat flour or a gluten-free all-purpose blend if needed. Keep in mind that the texture may vary, and you may need to adjust the amount of yogurt slightly to achieve a soft dough consistency.
Q: What can I use if I don't have spring onions?
A: If you don't have spring onions, you can substitute them with scallions, leeks, or even thinly sliced red onions. Grilling enhances their flavors, similar to spring onions.
Q: How do I store leftovers, and can I reheat them?
A: Store leftover flatbreads and toppings separately in airtight containers in the refrigerator. The flatbreads can be reheated on a skillet or grill for 1-2 minutes per side. The tzatziki should be consumed within 2-3 days for the best flavor.
Q: Is there a way to make this recipe vegan?
A: To make the recipe vegan, use a non-dairy yogurt alternative, such as coconut or almond yogurt, for both the dough and tzatziki. Replace the Greek yogurt with a thick, unsweetened non-dairy yogurt, and ensure any substitutions align with your dietary requirements.
Q: Can I prepare the components in advance?
A: Yes, you can knead and refrigerate the flatbread dough a day in advance. The tzatziki can also be prepared up to 24 hours ahead and stored in the fridge. Assemble the flatbreads just before serving for the best texture and flavor.
Q: What are some alternative toppings or additions I can use?
A: Feel free to experiment with toppings! Roasted vegetables, grilled chicken or shrimp, crumbled feta, or even a drizzle of balsamic glaze work beautifully. You can also add a pinch of za'atar spice to the herb crunch for extra flavor.
Q: Why is my flatbread not cooking evenly or puffing up?
A: Uneven cooking may occur if the grill pan or barbecue isn't hot enough. Ensure the grill is preheated to medium-high heat before cooking. Also, roll the dough evenly to avoid thick or thin spots that may cook unevenly.
