The following recipe was featured during the presentation of Jumpin’ Jack
Flash during TBS’s Dinner & a Movie.

1. Make the dough:Combine the water, salt and onion in the jar of a blender
and blend until smooth. Pour the mixture into a small saucepan and bring to
a boil. Place the bulgur in a medium mixing bowl, pour the onion mixture
over the bulgur and set aside for 15 minutes.

2. Add one cup flour to the bulgur and stir with a wooden spoon until
incorporated. Transfer the dough onto a floured board, put “Jumpin’ Jack
Flash” on the stereo and begin kneading. Add more flour only as needed to
keep the dough from sticking. When the song’s over, stop kneading only long
enough to play it again from the top. The second time the song is finished
so is the dough, stop kneading. Cover the dough with a damp cloth and let
rest for 30 minutes.

3. Make the Garbanzo Dip:Combine all ingredients in the work bowl of a food
processor and process until smooth and well blended. Spread onto a dish,
drizzle olive oil in a trough down the center and dust with cayenne and
cumin..

4. Make the Chile-Mint Salsa:Combine and mix all ingredients in a serving
bowl. Season to taste with salt and pepper.

5. Make the Eggplant-Yogurt Spread:Preheat oven to 425F. Pierce the
eggplant with a skewer in half a dozen places; wrap the garlic in foil.
Place both on a baking sheet and roast for 30-45 minutes. Peel the eggplant
under cold water, transfer to a colander and press out any bitter juices.
Cut the garlic in half and squeeze into a mixing bowl. Place the eggplant
in the bowl with the roasted garlic and mash with a fork until smooth. Fold
in the yogurt, olive oil and lemon. Season to taste with salt and pepper.

6. Bake the Flatbread:Evenly divide the dough into 12 pieces. Roll each
piece out as thinly as possible. Lay out flat on a lightly floured baking
sheet and bake on the floor of the preheated oven for 2 minutes before
flipping and finishing for one additional minute.

7. Eat the hot B-flat flatbreads right out of the oven by tearing off a
piece and scooping it into one or more of the dips.
