Time 55m

Yield Makes 8

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 tbsp olive oil
2 garlic cloves , thinly sliced
350g self-raising flour , plus more for dusting
¼ tsp salt
1 tsp baking powder
85g cold butter , cut into cubes
150g pot natural full-fat yogurt
4 tbsp full-fat milk
250g cooked new potato , sliced
1 tsp chopped rosemary , plus extra small sprigs
50g parmesan (or vegetarian alternative), grated
85g gruyère , half diced, half grated

Steps:

  • Heat the oil in a medium pan, then gently fry the garlic for 10 mins until softened but not coloured. Set aside. Heat oven to 220C/200C fan/gas 7.
  • Put the flour, salt and baking powder into a food processor, then whizz in the butter until it disappears. Tip into a large bowl, then make a well in the middle. Warm the yogurt and milk together in a microwave for 1 min or in a pan; it should be hot and may well go a bit lumpy-looking. Tip into the bowl and quickly work into the flour mix using a cutlery knife. As soon as it's all in, stop.
  • Turn the dough onto a floured surface, bring it together with floured hands, then press out to a large rectangle. Scatter over the potatoes, chopped rosemary, garlic, some of its oil and most of the cheese. Knead a few times, shape into a round, then lift onto a floured baking sheet.
  • Score the top, scatter with the rest of the cheese, poke in a few rosemary sprigs, then drizzle with the remaining oil. Bake for 25 mins until risen, golden and sizzling around the edges. Best eaten just warm.
