Make the dough in a FP by preference. Put all ingredients into the FP and pulse til you have a dough. Dust surface and knead for a minute. Place in a floured bowl, cover with tea towel and leave to rest for a bit.

Make the butter if using... melt butter, stir in other ingredients and leave to one side. Dust work surface and rolling pin with flour. Heat a griddle pan on high or a grill.

Divide dough into 12 (2 per person) and roll them into side plate sized rounds.

Make 4-6 gashes in the centre and cook each one on a hot dry griddle for a couple of minutes per side until puffy and slightly charred. (I don't do the slashes)

Brush with herby garlic butter on one side and serve on a warm plate.

Additional Information

If I'm serving with dahl and curry I'll leave off the garlic butter as that's more Italian to go with pasta sort of thing! I often knead in Nigella seeds instead, caraway seeds are good too. Who hasn't got flour and yogurt knocking around, easy to make too by the sound of it. I'll heat a large griddle in my oven and put all 4 (for 2 of us) on at once and cook in the oven.
