Quick to make, tear-and-share flatbreads are perfect for cooking over an open fire. I have a cast-iron pan that I keep especially for this purpose. It’s a robust old thing, which I sit directly in the embers. When it’s smoking hot I lay the flatbreads down in the pan and they cook very quickly. You could use a large flat stone instead – just make sure it’s really hot.
