Equipment
- Blender
- Mixing bowl
- Spatula
- Brush
- Baking tray
- Baking paper
- Knife
- Rolling Pin
Ingredients
- 2 cups all purpose flour
- 1 tbsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 tsp garlic powder and onion powder
- 2 tsp dried herbs
- 1 tsp crushed black pepper
- 1/3 cup spring onions
- 1 cup smoked turkey cooked and shredded
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tbsp honey
- 1 cup paneer blended coarsely or cottage cheese
- 1/2 cup milk
Brush with heavy cream
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425 deg F. In a blender, grind the paneer until coarse and very fine or grate it using a box grater.
- In a large mixing bowl add the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, garlic powder, onion powder, pepper, herbs, spring onion, turkey, shredded cheese and stir together.
- Add the olive oil, honey, milk, paneer and stir together to form a shaggy dough. Turn it onto a clean kitchen surface.
- Briefly bring the dough together and cut it into half, stack it over each other to create layers. Do this 3-4 times and roll it out into a 1-2 inch thickness.
- Cut into squares and place on a lined baking tray, brush with cream and bake for 17-20 minutes or until the top is golden, they have risen and are dry to the touch.
- Slice and serve with garlic butter.
Notes
- Do not over knead the dough, we don’t want it very smooth, this is what makes the flaky layers.

- You can cut the dough into rounds or better shapes but I stuck with the most simple option.
