These flatbreads are pretty quick to put together (especially if the filling is premade) and fry. They're delicious when freshly cooked. I reckon there's a couple of different alternate fillings that would be nice: a beef stew similar to a cornish pasty; slow-cooked pulled pork; perhaps a pizza-inspired one with tomato, cheese and pepperoni.

I use this focaccia recipe whenever I have a day off, and it's never failed me. This week I tried making a garlic focaccia - I wrapped some garlic up in tinfoil, added some oil and stuck it in the oven at 180 for half an hour or so. I then added the softened garlic and some parsley to some butter to make garlic butter. When I reached the toppings stage, I added some butter and some sliced mozzarella to the centre third of the bread and folded the sides of the dough over the toppings (like a book) to encase them inside the bread. My learning experience this week was that I shouldn't add too much garlic butter, otherwise it'll spill out from the dough into the pan while cooking. Nevertheless, it was very tasty and it felt so luxurious to be eating garlic focaccia while watching The Fugitive. I would call it a successful experiment!

 I find a lot of recipes either call for a deep fryer or an air fryer, and I have difficulties with both; I don't own a deep fryer - nor do I intend to buy one - and I have a 50/50 success rate with air fryers. More recipes need to use basic kitchen equipment that your average family will have access to, and this recipe for prawn toast is an excellent start! Your most important equipment is a blender, a frying pan, and a fish slice to transport your prawn toast in and out of the pan. You do use a decent portion of cooking oil, but most of that will soak into the bread as it cooks (which is why this should be an occasional treat) and the rest can be soaked up with kitchen roll and disposed of. No need to pour any oil down the sink.
