Homemade lavash without yeast

Step-by-step preparation

Cooking time: 1 hr 15 mins

1. STEP 1

   

   How to make homemade lavash without yeast? Take a large deep bowl and sift the entire volume of wheat flour into it. Next, add salt into the same container. Mix dry ingredients. This is done to ensure that the salt is evenly distributed throughout the flour. Then pour vegetable oil into the flour. Boil a kettle of water. Add 200 ml of hot water to the flour, salt and butter container.

2. STEP 2

   

   Knead the dough. Mix it with a spoon first (since the water is hot and you can burn your hands). When the water has already been absorbed into the flour, continue kneading the dough with your hands. After kneading the dough in a bowl, transfer it to the work surface and continue kneading for some more time (literally 2-3 minutes). Place the already elastic dough in a plastic bag for 20-30 minutes so that it rests and becomes more pliable when rolling out.

3. STEP 3

   

   Grease your hands, rolling pin and knife (or spatula) with vegetable oil. After half an hour, remove the dough from the bag and knead it a little again (1-2 minutes). Roll the dough into a flagellum, divide it into 8 parts using a knife or spatula (for a frying pan with a diameter of 26-28 cm). If the frying pan is of a smaller diameter, then divide the dough into more pieces. Cover the pieces with cling film or put them back in the bag so that the dough does not dry out.

4. STEP 4

   

   Take a piece and use a rolling pin to roll it out thinly. There is no need to add flour when rolling. You can now place the thinly rolled dough on a heated frying pan. If you want to get beautiful, even pita bread, then place a plate on the dough and carefully run a knife along its contour. This way you will get a round, even pita bread. But this is not a necessary condition at all and does not affect the taste of lavash in any way. Fry the prepared pita bread in a dry frying pan on both sides.

5. STEP 5

   

   Be sure to brush lavash freshly fried over medium heat with water on both sides to make it soft. Then cover it with film and place a towel on top. This is done so that the cake gives up its heat and becomes softer. Repeat all steps, thus frying all the pita breads. You cannot store pita breads open; they will dry out quickly, so put them in a plastic bag. Serve the finished pita bread either warm or cold.

They turned out delicious, my husband couldn’t tell the difference from store-bought ones. The thinner you roll it out, the tastier it will be. Thanks for the recipe

A wonderful and simple recipe for the most delicious lavash! Finally, I eat lavash, which completely suits me 👌🏾It’s just sooooo pleasant to work with the dough - it’s so soft, warm. I made it twice - from wheat flour and from a mixture of wheat and rye - for experimentation - and then , and it’s delicious! Ready-made pita bread makes breakfast, lunch, dinner, and dessert - if you add various desired fillings and fry them in a frying pan. But just cold pita bread is also very good! If you don’t blot it with water after cooking, then instead Plastic and soft you will get crispy flatbreads. In short, several options for dishes suitable for any meal! Thank you for the recipe Homemade pita bread without yeast❤️
