How it's done

Spicy honey

Place the honey and chilli flakes in a pan, bring to just below the boil, then leave to infuse for approx. 15 mins. Pour the honey through a sieve.

Dough

Mix the flour, baking powder, sugar and salt in a bowl. Add the water and oil, mix and knead to form a soft, smooth dough. Cover the dough and leave to stand for approx. 10 mins.

Yoghurt dressing

In a bowl, mix the yoghurt with all the other ingredients up to and including the chives, season.

Flatbreads

Divide the dough into 4 portions, shape into balls. On a lightly floured surface, roll out into circles approx. 4 mm thick. Heat a little oil in a non-stick frying pan, fry the flatbreads in batches for approx. 2 mins. on each side until golden brown.

Halloumi

Add oil to the same pan, fry the halloumi for approx. 2 mins. on each side. Drizzle 3 tbsp of the spicy honey on top, cook for approx. 1 min. while turning.

To serve

Plate up the flatbreads, top with some of the yoghurt dressing, halloumi, pomegranate seeds and parsley, then drizzle a little of the spicy honey on top. Serve the remainder of the dressing and honey alongside.
