Flatbread With Avocado and Scallion Salsa image

Pillowy flatbread is an optimal canvas for buttery avocados and a spicy salsa, but it can also be a vehicle for all kinds of dips and spreads. Just don't call it avocado toast!

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 19

Dough:
1 ½ tsp. sugar
1 (¼-oz.) envelope active dry yeast (about 2¼ tsp.)
2½ cups (313 g) all-purpose flour
½ cup whole-milk plain Greek yogurt
2 Tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil
2 tsp. kosher salt
Salsa and assembly:
2 tsp. coriander seeds
2 tsp. cumin seeds
8 scallions
4 Tbsp. plus 1 cup extra-virgin olive oil, divided, plus more for brushing
Kosher salt
1 red or green chile (such as serrano or jalapeño), finely chopped
1 cup finely chopped parsley
1 lemon
4 medium avocados, pits removed
Flaky sea salt (optional)
Special Equipment: A spice mill

Steps:

  • Dough:
  • Stir sugar into ¾ cup warm water in a large bowl. Sprinkle in yeast and let sit until foamy, about 10 minutes.
  • Add flour, yogurt, oil, and kosher salt to sugar mixture and mix until a shaggy dough forms (don't worry about any dry or unincorporated bits). Cover bowl with a damp kitchen towel and let sit in a warm, dry spot until doubled in size, about 1 hour.
  • Salsa and assembly:
  • While the dough is rising, toast coriander seeds and cumin seeds in a dry medium skillet over medium heat, shaking often, until fragrant and slightly darkened in color, about 3 minutes. Transfer to a spice mill. Let cool, then coarsely grind. Set spice mixture aside.
  • Place scallions and 1 Tbsp. oil in skillet, season with kosher salt, and cook, turning occasionally, until softened and deeply charred, about 4 minutes. Transfer to a cutting board; trim roots and discard. Finely chop scallions and place in a medium bowl. Add reserved spice mixture, chile, and parsley. Finely grate half of lemon zest into bowl, then cut lemon in half and squeeze in juice. Add 1 cup oil and stir well to combine. Season with kosher salt and let sit while you make the flatbreads.
  • Turn out dough onto a lightly dusted surface and divide into 8 equal pieces. Form into balls and, working with 1 ball at a time, roll out into 6" rounds about ¼" thick.
  • Heat 1 Tbsp. oil in a large skillet over medium-high. Working 1 at a time and adding remaining 2 Tbsp. oil as needed, cook flatbread until bubbles appear over the surface, about 1 minute. Flip and cook until cooked through, about 1 minute. Continue to cook, turning often, until browned in spots on both sides, about 1 minute longer. Transfer to a plate and wrap up in a clean kitchen towel to keep warm.
  • To serve, brush each flatbread with oil. Coarsely smash avocados onto flatbread and spoon salsa over. Sprinkle with sea salt if desired.

I was planning a party and thought it might be fun to try a different kind of avocado salsa. This recipe was an absolute success. Scoop it up with chips, spoon it over chicken or steak, or eat it on its own! -Susan Vandermeer, Ogden, Utah
