"A lean pita that`ll stun you with its taste and aroma - try it and share with friends."

Ingredients

  • water - 2 1/5 cups (550 ml)
  • yeast - 1/2 cube
  • sugar - 2 tablespoons
  • oil - 3 tablespoons
  • salt - 1 tablespoon
  • flour - 2 lb (1 kg)
  • olive oil - for spreading
measures

How to make

Dissolve the yeast and sugar in 2/3 cup (150 ml) warm water with a few tablespoons flour. Leave the yeast to activate.

Once effervescent, add the remaining water, the oil and flour with the salt. Knead a nice, fluffy dough. Leave it to rise (double in volume).

Shape the risen dough as desired.

What I did was as follows: I divided the dough into 3 balls - small, medium and large. I set aside a small ball from the large one, which I used to make 3 rosettes.

I used the smallest ball for the center of the pita. Then I formed a wick from the medium ball, I weaved it and placed it around the central ball. I placed the 3 rosettes where the 2 ends meet.

Form the final large part of dough into a wick, weave it and place around the previous one. Leave the pita to rise, then bake at 360°F (180 °C) until ready.

After baking, smear it with olive oil.
