Pita recipe

Ingredients:

  • Warm water - 250 ml;
  • Flour - 400 g;
  • Dry yeast - 1 tsp l .;
  • Salt - 0.5 tsp l.

Preparation:

There are two options: with fresh or dry yeast.

  • Prepare a dough from fresh yeast - pour 20 g of fresh yeast with warm water, add 1 liter of sugar and 1 liter of flour, mix and use after the foam cap appears.
  • It is easier with dry yeast. They must be poured into flour. Add a little salt. Sugar, as they say in many recipes, is not needed in order for the yeast to start acting sooner. Pick the yeast option and let's start cooking.
  1. Next, add warm water to the flour.
  2. Knead the dough, leave it in a warm place for 1 hour to rise.
  3. Roll out the dough 0.3-0.5 cm thick, cut out the cakes with a glass.
  4. Cover the dough with a towel and leave it warm for 40 minutes. During this time, the cakes will become larger.
  5. The next step is to fry. Preheat the frying pan well and put 3-4 cakes in a DRY frying pan, wait for them to rise. After two minutes they will "inflate", then turn the cakes over to the other side, fry for another 1.5 minutes. We remove the cakes. After they have cooled down, they may "deflate" a little, this is normal.
  6. We use the cakes for their intended purpose - we fill them with blanks. We are ready to share one of the recipe options already below, in the same material.

Many people ask the question: "Is it possible to cook cakes not in a frying pan, but in the oven?" Sure you may! Preheat the oven to 250 degrees and put the cakes on a dry baking sheet. As soon as the cake is like a ball ("swell") (watch them, it will take only -5-7 minutes), the pita is ready. And so we repeat with the following cakes.

Shelf life is 2 days, and yes, the pita stays fresh during this period. Be sure to store in a paper bag that closes tightly.
