"I`m already making a second tray-full, what are you waiting for?"

Ingredients

  • water - 1 2/3 cups (400 ml) warm
  • flour - 2 1/2 cups (600 g)
  • oil - 3 tablespoons
  • sugar - 1 tsp
  • salt - 1/2 tsp
  • yeast - 1 1/3 tbsp (20 g) fresh
  • sesame seeds - 4 pinches
  • oregano - 4 pinches
  • salt - 4 pinches, coarse
measures

How to make

Dissolve the yeast and sugar in the warm water. Sift the flour in a bowl and form a well, add the salt and oil in it. Pour in the water with the dissolved yeast and sugar and knead a soft dough.

Divide the dough into 4 equal-sized parts and shape them into balls. Cover the dough balls with a clean towel and leave them as is for 30 min.

Stretch out each with your hands into a round sheet about 1/2″ (1 cm) thick. Arrange them in a tray laid out with baking paper and cover with a towel again, leave as is for 30 min.

With the dull edge of the knife, make squares or rhombuses. Smear the pitas with a little oil on top using a brush, sprinkle with a pinch of sesame seeds, oregano and coarse salt.

Place the tray in a preheated 390°F (200 °C) oven and bake about 15-20 min., depending on the oven. The result is fantastically soft and tasty lean pitas.
