Khubz bi-s-Simsim (Arabic)

Place flour in a bowl and make a well. Crumble in the yeast and dissolve it with a little lukewarm water. Sprinkle salt on the edge of the flour. Add enough lukewarm water to form a dough that’s easy to knead. Knead vigorously for 5 minutes and let it rest briefly. Then work the sesame seeds into the dough with 3 tablespoons of oil. Brush a baking sheet with the remaining oil. Roll out the dough and cover. Let it rise for about 20 minutes. Brush with water, sprinkle with sesame seeds, and bake in a preheated oven at 250°C for about 30 minutes.
