Instructions
Working time approx. 25 minutes; Total time approx. 25 minutes
a type of Iranian / Persian bread
Mix the yeast with about 50 ml of lukewarm water in a bowl and let it stand for about 10 minutes. Then stir in 3 tablespoons of flour, cover and let this pre-dough rise in a warm place for about 1 hour. Put the remaining flour in a bowl (reserve some flour), add about 280 ml of lukewarm water, the salt and the oil and knead everything with the pre-dough for about 10 minutes until you have a dough. Grease your hands and a rolling pin. Divide the dough into four equal portions, shape them into oval loaves and roll out with a rolling pin to about 1 cm thick. Place the loaves on the greased baking sheet, cover and let rise for another 20 minutes. Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 240°C (top/bottom heat, fan: 220°C). Brush the tops of the loaves with oil and score designs with a knife. Bake in the oven on the middle rack for about 10 – 15 minutes until the bread is lightly browned.
