This is possibly the easiest bread you will ever make. This flatbread is a nice and easy addition to Shawarma.
Ingredients:
==========
4 Cups (17 Ounces/500 Grams) of Bread Flour
1 Teaspoon Salt
2 Teaspoons Dry Yeast
5 Oz (150 ML) Warm Water - 100° to 115° F
5 Oz (150 ML) Warm Milk - 100° to 115° F
3 Tablespoons Olive Oil
1 Tablespoon Olive Oil, separated
Optional Flavorings
Fresh Garlic, finely minced
Fresh Cilantro, finely chopped
Fresh Parsley, finely chopped
Aleppo Pepper Flakes or Chili Powder (to taste)
Directions:
=========
In mixer, mix the dry ingredients: Flour, Salt, and Yeast. Mix thoroughly.
Add the Warm Water and the Milk. Use the dough hook and mix until the dogh sticks together in a single clump. Drizzle 3 Teaspoons of Olive Oil and continue to mix until the dough begins to clean the sides of the mixing bowl.
Turn out into a large bowl. Form the dough into a large ball.
Coat the Dough Ball with 1 Tablespoon Olive Oil and set aside in warm place for 1 hour or until doubled in size.
When the dough is done rising, cut it into 6 equal pieces and roll each piece into a ball.
Stretch and shape each ball by hand, into a disc, about 8 inches wide and about 1/4 inch thick.
Cover the Flatbreads with a Tea Towel and allow to rise for another 30 minutes.
Place a lightly oil pan over medium heat, until the pan is heated.
Place 1 flatbread on the pan. Cook for about 2.5, then flip.
When you flip each flatbread it should rise up to make a pocket in the middle.
After another 2.5 minutes, remove the flatbread from the heat.
Brush each hot flatbread with Olive Oil, then sprinkle with optional flavorings.
