Method

1. 1

   Mix together the flour, bicarbonate of soda, and salt in a large bowl or directly on a baking tray. Make a well in the centre and add the yogurt.

2. 2

   Using your hands, slowly combine the ingredients until a dough forms. Turn out onto a floured surface and knead for a few minutes, adding flour a little at a time if too sticky, until the dough is smooth and slightly tacky like pizza dough.

3. 3

   Add a little oil to a baking tray and place the dough on top. Shape and flatten into a circle about 5cm high. Brush the surface generously with olive oil.

4. 4

   Score the top with the back of a fork (lines or dots) to help with even cooking.

5. 5

   Place on the bottom shelf of a preheated oven and bake for 40 minutes, or until golden and firm to touch. Cool upright on a rack, then cut into 8 wedges.
