Pita Bread

Love me some pita bread freshly done - yum yum .. This is easy and tastes delicious. Whenever I make these, they go in 5 minutes - I am lucky if I am left one!!!!


Ingredients
1 cup of warm water
1 pk dry yeast
2 1/2 cups of plain flour
2 tsp salt
1 tsp veg oil
1 tsp dry mixed herbs

Method


  • Add your dry yeast to the warm water and let stand for about 5 minutes, or until it's 'frothy'
  • In a large mixer, add the flour, salt, oil, herbs. Mix. Then add your yeast mixture and knead into a dough. 
  • Place dough in an oiled bowl and place some cling wrap directly onto the dough - leave in a warm place for around an hour and let rise.
  • Roll out into flat mounds and add a bit of butter to a hot pan - pan fry your bread.
  • When it starts to bubble a little, flip over and repeat.
