LAVASH
300 g flour
10 ml chili flakes
5 ml salt
10 ml dried oregano
45 ml olive oil
250 ml lukewarm water
black and white sesame seeds for sprinkling (optional)
olive oil for brushing
METHOD:
- Combine all the dry ingredients in the bowl of your mixer, fitted with a dough hook (flour, chili flakes, salt and oregano) and mix well
- Add most of the water and the olive oil and start kneading the dough on low speed and then increasing the speed as the dough comes together. Add more liquid if necessary. Do not over mix the dough
- Cover the dough and rest for 30 minutes
- Preheat the oven to 180° and line two large baking trays with baking paper
- Divide dough into 4 equal sizes. Dust generously with flour and roll it out onto a floured surface to as thin as possible. Alternatively roll the dough through a pasta maker – starting on the widest setting and rolling it a few times – adjusting the setting to roll dough out as thin as possible. Brush with olive oil
- Cut the dough into smaller pieces and sprinkle with the sesame seeds. Place on the baking trays
- Bake for ±10 minutes until crisp and light brown
- Cool and store in an airtight container if not using immediately
