approx. 150 ml water
1-2 tbsp rapeseed or olive oil

1
Dough: mix the flour and salt. Add the yeast, water and oil and mix briefly to form a soft dough. Cover and let rise in a cool place for 3-4 hours or overnight, occasionally stretching and folding the dough.
2
Split the risen dough in two and, using a bit of flour, roll each piece into a round about 25 cm in diameter. Place on parchment-lined baking sheets and briefly let rise again.
3
Topping: Spread both of the rounds with crème fraîche, leaving a rim of about 1.5 cm. Top with onion, garlic, cabbage and garlic. Mix the chickpeas with oil, paprika and salt and add to the rounds, along with the mozzarella. Sprinkle with Sbrinz and season to taste.
4
One at a time, bake the flatbreads in the bottom of an oven preheated to 210 °C convection or pizza setting (230 °C conventional). Before serving, garnish with parsley.
Tips
This is a great way to use leftover, home-cooked pulses and legumes. Why not try lentils or beans?
