Method:


Flatbreads


Put the flour and the salt into a large bowl and mix to combine. Put the sugar, yeast and warm water into a small jug, mix, then leave for 2-3 minutes or until it foams up. Pour this mixture into the flour along with the olive oil and the yoghurt. Mix well then turn out onto a clean work-surface and knead for 10 minutes until smooth. Put into a bowl greased with olive oil, cover then leave to rise in a warm place until doubled in size. This will take an hour or two depending on how hot it is.
 
Divide the dough into 6 pieces then roll each one into a ball. Put on an oiled plate for 10 minutes or so until rising again. Take one piece of the dough and roll out on a floured surface into a 20cm round. Repeat with remaining dough.

Heat a heavy-bottomed frying pan, add a little olive oil and butter and then fry each flatbread for 3 or so minutes on each side until golden and bubbly. Keep warm in a low oven.
 

Hummus


Put all the ingredients into a jug and blend with a stick blender, adding more water to achieve a smooth consistency. Check for seasoning, adding more salt if required. Scoop out into a bowl, drizzle over olive oil and sprinkle with a pinch of cumin.
 

Garlic Yoghurt


Put all the ingredients into a small bowl and mix well. Check for seasoning, adding more lemon juice and salt if required.
 
To Serve:

Garlic Yoghurt


Put the red onion into a small bowl, pour over the red wine vinegar then mix to combine and set aside.
 
Put the meatballs into a bowl, sprinkle over the cumin and coriander and mix well to coat. Heat a little olive oil in a heavy-bottomed frying pan then fry the meatballs until browned all over and cooked through.
 
Arrange the meatballs, cucumber, tomatoes, feta, lemon wedges and herbs on a serving platter. Serve alongside the flatbreads, hummus, garlic yoghurt and red onion and let people build their own meal.
