Unleavened Griddle Baked Pita Bread
3 cups White flour
1 teaspoon Salt
1 cup Warm water
Vegetable oil
Combine flour & salt & add stir in enough water so that the dough pulls away
from the sides of the bowl & is no longer sticky. Stir till smooth. Knead on a
board for 5 minutes. Shape dough into rectangle & cut in half lengthwise. Divide
into 12 portions & shape into smooth balls. Cover with damp balls & let rest 5
to 10 minutes.
Press each ball flat & roll into a 6" or 7" circle. Cover with damp towels.
Lightly oil a griddle or skillet. Gently stretch each round as thin as possible.
Cook until brown & bubbly spots appear on the bottom, about 90 seconds. Turn
over & brown the other side. Remove from griddle & wrap immediately in towels. |
