These loaded flatbreads are surprisingly filling, but you can add griddled chicken or lamb, roasted vegetables or whatever takes your fancy.

Preparation
Step 1
Make the crunchy salad: mix all the ingredients together in a bowl.
Step 2
Make the dressing: heat the oil in a small frying pan (skillet) over a low heat. Add the chile and ginger and cook for 2 minutes, then stir in the seeds. Cook for 1–2 minutes until fragrant. Put the yogurt in a clean bowl and stir in the chile, ginger and seed mixture. Season to taste. Gently toss the salad in the dressing.
Step 3
Dry-fry the halloumi in a non-stick frying pan (skillet) over a medium heat for 2–3 minutes each side until golden brown and crispy on the outside and softened inside. Remove and drain on kitchen paper (paper towels).
Step 4
Warm the flatbreads on a griddle pan or in a low oven and spread them with the hummus. Top with the halloumi and crunchy salad, and dot with harissa. Serve immediately.

Back to TopLoved these flatbreads! Made flatbreads from a BA recipe (<a href="https://www.bonappetit.com/recipe/easy-flatbread-with-cauliflower-and-tofu" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer ugc">https://www.bonappetit.com/recipe/easy-flatbread-with-cauliflower-and-tofu</a>) and this was a real hit. Next time I would fry up the chickpeas for some more crunch and flavor.

My one line summary of this dish is "liked, but didn't love". I made a couple of adaptations (for example, roasting the chickpeas) after browsing the comments below which I believe enhanced the flavors and texture, however overall it lacked any umami flavor. If I were to make again I would consider spicing the hummus and adding more herbage to top.

Hmmm, this one had a ton of potential but just didn’t do it for us.

Thought this was really good. I read reviews before I made and did a few adjustments. We made the chickpeas crispy (fried in a pan on the grill but you can do stovetop). Then added as a topper not mixed in the salad. It was a wonderful additional crunch factor. Also toasted and crushed the cumin and mustard seeds. I only had yellow to substitute. Added the orange juice to the dressing and tossed in the Harrissa. It needed it or was too thick in my opinion. I wanted some acid so I squeezed part of a lime but could even have done more. Did use the Halloumi because I found it and it fried up nicely and stayed firm but melty. We added some marinated grilled chicken for additional protein. Used store bought Naan. Was delicious!

Quick, Easy, Healthy, and Delicious! Whats not to love? I would cut the slaw amount back slightly, we had a lot left over.

Great! Quick, tasty, and filling! Couldn't find halloumi, so I substituted Feta which contributed the briny flavoring with great success.
