About

Flatbreads are super fun to make and fast, so lucky for us this recipe uses flatbread for the base. Flatbread brushed with oil and cooked in the oven until crispy is the perfect vessel for salmon lox, an ingredient with some pretty good friends—one of them being cream cheese. Mixed with the symphony of flavours of an Indian tikka masala, this flatbread is a game changer. The quick pickles give the dish a little “sunshine” and the tamarind drizzle makes for really exciting bites every time.<
