My wife is gluten free, will the different flour impact the flat breads at all?

Like

Yes, it may impact the texture and structure of the dough. So ideally use a gluten free flour that specifies use for bread/baking. When you mix the dough, it might be a little dry so you will potentially need to add a little more liquid than is stated in the recipe. Also you might need to let the dough rest for 20 minutes. Hope that helps and let me know how you get on!

To make it with veggies, you’ve recommended sautéed spinach, any rough guide? I know the Mrs will want some greens in it.

Of course! If you have a griddle/frying pan, heat some oil and garlic. Then add the spinach and a splash of water and cook until it's just starting to wilt!

I made this last week and it was amazing so I’m going it again haha. But one question. I had trouble doing the naan bread. Any reason why the dough was sticky. Could it have been not enough olive oil. Hope to hear from you soon before dinner. Thanks again for your skills and knowledge

So it can be sticky for a number of reasons including too much olive oil, a thinner greek yogurt, kitchen being too warm or not enough flour. How did it go the second time round?

Sorry only just seen this. I’ve been making this recipe every week. Today I thought I’d try the sweet and sour stir fry but the kids were adamant I made the curry haha. They really like the flat bread. After reading what you said it’s most likely the Greek yogurt as only have 10% fat but i seem to make it work now. I will try 0% fat and see how they turn out.
