Grilled Flatbreads with Smoky Pumpkin Seed ‘Dukkah’
Fire food at its simplest and most satisfying.
Grill these flatbreads--or better yet, have guests shape and grill their own--and serve hot off the fire to stave off hunger while the rest of the meal is cooking.

What you'll have to do
Step 1
Whisk together flours and salt in a wide bowl. Bloom yeast with honey in warm water for 5-10 minutes, then add to the flour mixture along with olive oil and stir to combine.
Step 2
Knead for 2-4 minutes until dough comes together and is elastic. Coat the dough ball with additional olive oil and cover with a damp cloth or film and set aside for 20 minutes to 1 hour in a warm place until doubled in size.
Step 3
Scatter some flour on a dry surface and pinch and roll dough into racquetball sized portions. Dust with flour and cover for 10-15 minutes to allow to relax and rise slightly.
Step 4
With dry, floured hands stretch dough into disks and grill on a grill grate over a hot fire until puffy and charred on both sides.
This can be done over a wood fire or gas grill. Alternately, flatbreads can be cooked in a hot cast iron pan on the stovetop, adding about a teaspoon of olive oil to the pan for each flatbread and griddling until golden and crispy on both sides.
Step 5
Combine crushed pumpkin seeds with dukkah, thyme and smoked pimenton. Drizzle flatbreads with olive oil and dip pieces in the dukkah. Fucking delicious.
