Make flatbread yourself: This is required
You can use the following recipe to make a regular-sized flatbread. As a side dish, it is enough for several people, as the main meal you will get enough for two heavy and three average eaters.
- 0.5 cubes of fresh yeast
- 450 grams of flour
- 300 milliliters of lukewarm water
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoons of salt
- 0.5 teaspoons of sugar
- 1 small egg
- some sesame and black cumin
Instructions: Make pita
After you have all the ingredients ready, follow these steps:
- Put the yeast in lukewarm water together with the sugar.
- Stir the mixture vigorously until the yeast breaks up and the sugar dissolves.
- Sift the flour into a bowl. Add the yeast mixture and salt.
- Mix the dough vigorously with a dough hook or your hands until a smooth dough is formed.
- Let the dough stand covered in a warm place for 30 minutes. It is best to cover the bowl with a slightly damp towel.
- Put some flour on the work surface and knead the dough vigorously again with your hands.
- Preheat the oven to 220 degrees top and bottom heat and place the flat cakes on the baking tray covered with baking paper.
- The flatbread should be about 25 cm in diameter. Let the dough rest on the baking sheet for another 10 minutes.
- Beat the egg and add a pinch of salt.
- Now use the back of a knife or a spatula to press the well-known diamond pattern into the flatbread.
- Brush the dough with the egg mixture and spread some sesame and black cumin over it.
- The flatbread is now baked in the oven for 10 to 12 minutes, depending on how brown you want it to be.
- Tip: Place a heat-resistant container with some water in the oven. This keeps the bread soft on the outside as well. 200 milliliters of water are enough.
