This pita bread is from the regions of Lebanese and Syrian. It is also known as a flat bread.





Servings: 8 loaves





Ingredients:





1/2 ounce active dry yeast


1 teaspoon sugar


2 1/2 cups warm water


8 cups plain flour (maybe 1/2 whole wheat flour for taste)


2 1/2 tablespoons vegetable oil


2 teaspoons salt


3 tablespoons oil





Instructions:





Dissolve the yeast in 1/4 cup of the lukewarm water. Stir in the sugar. Set aside in a warm place. Leave it until it begins to rise up and foam. This will take about 15 minutes.





Sift the salt and flour together into a large, warm mixing bowl..





Form a well in the center of the flour mixture. Pour the yeast into the center. Gently mix the yeast into the flour. Mix by hand, adding small amounts of warm water if necessary.





Knead until this becomes a soft dough. Transfer the dough from the bowl to a floured pastry board and continue to knead until it is smooth and shiny. This will take about 15 minutes. Knead 2 tablespoons of oil into the dough. Roll into a large ball. Rub the remaining one tablespoon of oil over the surface of the ball. Return to the bowl. Cover with a moist cloth. Set in a warm place to rise. Leave it about 1 1/2 hours until it doubles in size.





Pre heat the oven to maximum heat at a minimum of 30 minutes before using. Punch down the dough. Pull the edges up to form another ball. Transfer to a lightly floured board and knead 2 minutes.





Divide into 8 equal portions and roll each portion into a ball. On the floured board flatten each ball and roll with a heavy rolling pin into flat round shapes approximately 1/4 inch or 6mm thick. They should be about 12 inches in diameter. Place the flattened bread rounds on a lightly floured cloth. Cover this with another floured cloth set in a warm spot to rise again to double their size. This should take about 30 minutes.





Pre heat the baking tray in the oven for 5 minutes. Carefully rub the tray with oil.





Place one round at a time on the baking tray. Cook 5 - 9 minutes. The bread should swell in the middle and become a light brown in color. Remove from the oven and wrap in a clean cloth to keep moist. The swelling will disappear when the bread is removed from the oven. Continue this procedure with the remaining rounds.Flat Bread Recipe?

There are two possible flat bread recipes that may be what you are looking for. One is Chapati and the other is Paratha. Parathas are usually ';filled'; with a vegetable such as potatoes or spinach.





Both use a type of Indian/Pakistani flour called ';atta'; (which just means flour, but it's a type of soft wheat flour that you don't get in the US usually). You can get ';atta'; flour at an Indian or specialty grocery store, or you can substitute a 50-50 mix of whole wheat flour and all-purpose flour.





Here are ingredients for the two flat breads:





Chapati:


Ingredients:


Chapati


* 2 cups ';atta'; flour (or 1 cup whole wheat flour + 1 cup all-purpose flour), plus extra for dusting


* 1 tsp salt


* About 1 cup warm water (225 millilitres)

1/2 teaspoon salt


3/4 cup warm water (enough to make a bread-like dough)


For potato filling:


3 large potatoes (about 3 cups) - peeled, boiled, mashed


3/4 cup onion, finely chopped


3 Tablespoons fresh coriander leaves (cilantro), finely chopped


1 1/2 Tablespoons cumin/coriander powder
