Discard makes flatbreads
Last night's meatfree Monday was Nina's brinjal and tomato salad from the jar, served with a gardenloot salad and sourdough flatbreads.
It's a new recipe that uses discard or "unfed" starter and a slow ferment (depending on whether it's in the fridge and if it's out, the ambient temperature). I made this batch in the morning, around 8 and cooked them at around 7. This type of bread is very forgiving if you over or under prove.
Either way, I am happy with the result and it may become my go-to. Except, of course if it's a spur of the moment thing. Recipe will eventually out - once I've done them at least once again.
Incidentally, the consistency of this particular dough made rolling and portioning these breads a whole less hard work than the other recipe. We have enough stashed in the freezer for another meal.
Until next time, be well

If this post might seem familiar, it's because I'm doing two things:
- re-vamping old recipes. As I do this, I am adding them in a file format that you can download and print. If you download recipes, buy me a coffee. Or better yet, a glass of wine....?
- and "re-capturing" nearly two years' worth of posts.

Yum yum, making me hungry Fiona.
Lol!!!!love it.
Sourdough flatbread?! Hmmm, might need to try that.
I really liked them. Much more like the authentic naan than the other recipe I used. I'll share the recipe soon. Or you can Google it!
I do love to experiment with cooking what we have. Those flatbreads look fantastic, and I do do something similar once in a while. Two cooking posts I have read of yours and thankfully it was after I ate or I would be raiding the fridge again!
