1

Tip the portobello mushrooms (600 g) into a bowl with the olive oil (2 tbsp), crush in the cloves (2 garlic), smoked paprika (1 tbsp), cumin (1 tbsp), lemon (1) (juiced), and plenty of [salt pepper]. Mix well and leave to marinate for at least an hour.
2

Finely chop the red peppers (2 roasted), cherry tomatoes (250 g), onion (1), and flat leaf parsley (1 handful) and tip into a bowl. Add in the pul biber (2 tsp), pomegranate molasses (2 tbsp), and lemon (0.5) (juiced), and plenty of [salt pepper]. Mix well. This will keep well covered in the fridge for a few days.
3

Tip the white self raising flour (350 g), baking powder (1 tsp), and salt (0.5 tsp) into a bowl, then pour in warm water (200 ml). Mix well, then tip out onto a lightly floured worksurface and knead for just a minute until even and smooth. Tip back into the bowl, cover and leave while you skewer and fry the mushrooms.
4

Get 8 metal skewers and push two through either side of each mushroom so it is securely held. Repeat with the remaining skewers and mushrooms. Heat a griddle pan over a high heat and cook the mushrooms for 5 minutes a side until charred and juicy. Move to a baking tray and put into the oven (preheated to 120°C fan setting) to keep warm.
5

Divide the flatbread dough into 8 pieces and roll each to a 14 cm circle on a lightly floured worksurface. Heat a frying pan over a high heat and cook each circle for 1-2 minutes on each side until puffed and charred. Keep warm in a clean tea towel while you cook the rest. Serve the mushroom skewers with the flatbreads, prepared salad, [hummus], [pickled chillies], more [pomegranate] molasses for drizzling, and a few [parsley] leaves.
