Charred Grape Lentil Flatbreads with Rosemary Yogurt Recipe 295 Charred Grape Lentil Flatbreads with Rosemary Yogurt

Charred Grape Lentil Flatbreads with Rosemary Yogurt are crisp-edged red lentil rounds topped with cold lemony yogurt, blistered grapes, rosemary and toasted almonds. The recipe works because the lentils are soaked just long enough to blend into a thick batter, the batter rests before frying, and the grapes are cooked quickly so they become glossy without collapsing into jam.
