✨ Serves 6 ✨

Ingredients ✍️

• 300g halloumi

• 2 tbsp Masterfoods Italian Herb Blend

• 1 mozzarella ball, sliced into 6 pieces

• 2 cups self-raising flour, extra for dusting

• 1 cup greek yoghurt

For the garlic butter:

• 3 tbsp butter

• 1 tsp Masterfoods Garlic Finely Crushed

• 2 tbsp parsley, finely chopped

Method ✍️

1. On a chopping board, lay the halloumi and then coat the top in Masterfoods Italian Herb Blend. Slice the block of halloumi into 6 thick rectangles.

2. To make the dough, add the self-raising flour to a bowl, followed by the greek yoghurt. Combine until it forms a shaggy dough, then knead on a lightly floured surface until smooth.

3. Slice the dough into 6 even portions, then using a rolling pin, individually roll it into a thin base. Lay the halloumi on top, followed by a slice of mozzarella, then bring the dough into the centre to completely encase the cheeses. Repeat until you have 6 flat breads.

4. In a lightly-oiled pan on medium heat, pan fry the flatbread with a lid on to help it steam for 2 minutes, then flip, replacing the lid so it cooks for another 2 minutes. Make sure the top and bottom has turned a rich brown colour, and all surfaces are cooked before removing. Repeat until all flatbreads are cooked.

5. In a pan on medium heat, melt the butter. Add the Masterfoods Garlic Finely Crushed, and parsley, cooking for 3 minutes until the parsley has wilted and the garlic is fragrant.

6. Brush the flatbreads with the garlic butter mixture and serve.

7. Enjoy!

For the tacos:

• 4 mini soft tortillas, warmed

• 1/2 cup olive oil

• 4 x 100g pieces white fish

• 1/3 cup plain flour

• 1 egg + 1 tbsp milk, whisked

• 1/2 cup panko crumbs

• 4 slices American-style cheese

• 2 cups finely chopped iceberg lettuce

For the sauce:

• 1 cup mayonnaise

• 4 small gherkins, chopped

• 1 tbsp chopped parsley

• 1 tbsp chopped dill

• 1 tbsp capers, roughly chopped

• 1 garlic clove, minced

• 1/2 tsp salt

• 1/2 tsp pepper

• 1/2 lemon, juiced

Add Egg Whites Separately

Adding the whole egg at once can make your batter too dense. Instead, try adding the egg white separately from the egg yolk.

If you want to be extra fancy, beat your egg whites until slightly stiff peaks form before folding them into the batter. This will make your pancakes extra light!

Buttermilk > Regular Milk

Regular milk works, but buttermilk takes your pancakes to the next level! It not only adds a nice tangy flavour, but the acidity also activates the baking soda.

Don't have buttermilk? Add a few tbsps of lemon juice to whole milk, then let it stand for 5 minutes.

Don’t Overmix The Batter

Overmixing your batter will result in dense, flat pancakes. To avoid this, just fold the ingredients together with a rubber spatula (not a whisk!) and stop.

Don't worry at all if there are a few lumps and tiny pockets of flour left over, they won’t be there after cooking.

Let Your Batter Rest

Once all the ingredients are folded in, be patient and let your batter rest for about 15–30 minutes.

This will give the flour, and other dry ingredients, time to absorb the wet ingredients. The gluten will also relax, and you'll end up with more tender pancakes.

Use A Cast Iron Pan

If you have one, use a cast iron pan to cook the pancakes.

You can totally use a basic non-stick pan, but a cast iron pan will not only give you more textured pancakes — it holds heat better, ensuring your pancakes end up evenly cooked.

Coat The Pan With Butter

Regular cooking oils may get the job done just fine, but using butter to coat your pan does more than just stop sticking!

Let the butter brown a little before you pour in the batter — this’ll give your pancakes more flavour and an even, golden finish.

Flip When Bubbles Form

Wait for bubbles to form on the surface before flipping. Also check that the edges have begun to set and turn golden brown — indicating the underside should be browning.

If you want to add any toppings like chocolate chips or blueberries, sprinkle them on before flipping!
