Method

  1. Tip the flour into a bowl, add the salt, black pepper and the thyme leaves and stir well.

  2. Make a well in the centre and add the Greek yoghurt and 40ml cold water and mix to a soft dough.

  3. Tip out and onto a lightly floured work surface and knead for a few seconds until it forms a soft smooth dough.

  4. Cut in half then roll each half into a ball, flatten slightly then roll with a rolling pin to about 5mm thick.

  5. Heat a large griddle pan until medium hot, add one piece of dough and cook on each side for about 1-2 minutes until charred and risen. Repeat with the second piece of dough and set aside while you make the topping.

  6. Heat a frying or sauté pan until medium hot. Add the oil and red onions and sweat for 2-3 minutes until just softening.

  7. Stir in the lentils and sun dried tomatoes and cook for 1-2 minutes until hot through, stirring all the time.

  8. Stir in the balsamic vinegar and the cherry tomatoes and cook for another 2 minutes.

  9. Remove from the heat and stir in half the blue cheese and stir until just melted into the lentils. Stir in half the parsley and season well with black pepper.

  10. Place the flat bread onto serving plates and top with half the rocket and then the lentil mixture. Divide the last of the cheese between the plates and scatter the remaining rocket and parsley over the top. Serve straightaway.
