Eggplant with haloumi, beetroot, tzatziki and yogurt flatbreads

This salad draws inspiration from the richness of creamy yogurt-covered eggplant found in Turkish cuisine, complemented by a naturally colorful beetroot-infused tzatziki that adds a delightful surprise. Pair it with salty, chewy Haloumi and those life-changing flatbreads. These flatbreads are easy to prepare and are fantastic when cooked on a barbecue. To save time, opt for pre-cooked whole beetroot. This dish is also ideal for breakfast.

Steps
- 1
Preheat the oven to 200ºC
- 2
For the flatbread: Combine the yoghurt and salt in a large bowl and beat until smooth. Gradually add the flour, stirring, until a stiff dough forms.
- 3
On a lightly floured surface, knead the dough, adding a little more flour if needed, until soft and slightly sticky. Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, cover with plastic wrap and leave to rest for 30 minutes.
- 4
For the beetroot tzatziki, place the beetroot in a small saucepan and cover with water. Bring to the boil, cover and simmer for 20 - 25 minutes or until the beetroot are tender. Drain and leave to cool, then finely grate.
- 5
Toast the cumin seeds in a dry frying pan until fragrant, then add to a bowl along with beetroot and remaining tzatziki ingredients. Season with salt and pepper, mix together well and transfer to a the refrigerator to chill.
- 6
Peel strips of skin from the eggplant, from top to bottom, so it leaves a stripy pattern. Cut the eggplant into 2 cm cubes. Cut the cauliflower into 2 cm cubes too and arrange on a large baking tray in a single layer. Drizzle with 3 tbsp of olive oil and roast for 30 minutes until soft and golden. Remove from the oven and season with salt.
- 7
Place the flatbread dough on a floured surface and divide it into six balls. Roll each ball into long circle. Brush each side with olive oil and sprinkle with little salt. Heat a frying pan over a medium high heat, add the flatbreads to the pan one at a time and cook for 30 seconds and each side until they puff up and are golden in part. Turn and repeat on the other side - don’t overcook.
- 8
When almost ready to serve, brush each side of the haloumi with olive oil and cook on a griddle pan, large frying pan or barbecue. Cook for 1 - 2 minutes on each side until soft and golden.
- 9
To serve, spread the beetroot tzatziki generously over a serving platter. Combine the eggplant with the spinach, walnuts if using and herbs and spoon it over the tzatziki. Drizzle with olive oil and season with a pinch of salt and pepper. Serve with haloumi, flatbread and some lemon wedges on the side, or roll everything up in the flatbread.
