This Aubergine Flatbreads Recipe Is From 5 Ingredients Mediterranean Cookbook by Jamie Oliver.

Ingredients Needed:

  • 1 large aubergine (400g)
  • 200g self-raising flour, plus extra for dusting
  • 10 mixed marinated olives
  • 2 sprigs or 1 heaped teaspoon dried flowering oregano
  • 50g feta cheese

How To Make Aubergine Flatbreads:

  1. Blacken the aubergine: Prick the aubergine and carefully blacken it over a direct flame on the hob or under the grill, turning with tongs until soft inside. Set it aside to cool in a bowl.
  2. Make the flatbread dough: In a separate bowl, mix the self-raising flour with a pinch of sea salt. Gradually add 100ml of water while stirring with a fork until it forms a dough. Knead the dough on a flour-dusted surface for a few minutes until smooth. Cover and let it rest briefly.
  3. Cook the flatbreads: Divide the dough in half and roll each piece into an oval shape, roughly 20cm long. Heat a large non-stick pan on high, then cook each flatbread for 2½ minutes on each side, until golden and cooked through. Work in batches if needed.
  4. Prepare the aubergine: Once the aubergine has cooled, slice it in half lengthwise and scoop out the flesh, discarding the skin. Add the aubergine flesh to the bowl, mix in 1 tablespoon of extra virgin olive oil, 1 tablespoon of red wine vinegar, and half the oregano. Season with salt and pepper, then stir and break up the aubergine with a spoon.
  5. Assemble the flatbreads: Spread the dressed aubergine on the cooked flatbreads. Chop the olives and briefly sizzle them in a pan with 1 tablespoon of olive oil for 30 seconds, then spoon over the aubergine mixture. Crumble feta cheese on top and sprinkle with the remaining oregano. Serve and enjoy!

Recipe Tips

  • Blacken the aubergine well: Make sure the skin is charred and the inside soft for the best smoky flavor.
  • Knead the dough properly: A smooth and elastic dough makes for softer, fluffier flatbreads.
  • Cook flatbreads on high heat: This ensures they develop a golden crust while staying soft inside.
  • Use fresh oregano for more flavor: If you have fresh oregano, it can enhance the dish’s flavor compared to dried.

How To Store & Reheat Leftovers

Storing: Store the cooked flatbreads and aubergine mixture separately in airtight containers in the fridge for up to 2 days.

Reheating: To reheat, place the flatbreads in a dry pan over medium heat for 2-3 minutes.
