There are many recipes for making lavash at home.
But how to make lavash soft, elastic, and so that the sauce does not leak out if you want to make shawarma from it? This pita bread recipe is ideal for making homemade shawarma.
So, to prepare pita bread for shawarma at home, we will need the products according to the list - as you can see, the simplest ones are always on hand. I prefer to weigh the ingredients for baking on a kitchen scale, then the result is perfect.
Ингредиенты
Wheat flour - 360 g
Boiling water - 200 g
Vegetable oil - 2 tbsp.
Sea salt - 0.5 tsp.
Рецепт
1. Boil the kettle. Sift the flour, add any vegetable oil and salt. Pour in hot water. Knead the dough first with a fork or spoon.
2. When the flour and water are completely mixed, take out the fork and start kneading the dough with your hand, it will still be very warm, but not hot.
3. The dough will turn out very soft and elastic, not sticking to your hands.
4. Cover the dough with cling film and leave for 30 minutes.
5. After 30 minutes, remove the film and you can work with the dough.
6. Divide the dough into 6-7 or 8 parts, depending on the diameter of the pan. I repeat, the dough will be elastic and very pleasant to work with, like plasticine.
7. Rolling out the dough is easy; you don’t even need to add flour when rolling. I rolled it out on the kitchen work surface. The thickness of the dough should be 1.5 mm.
8. Heat the frying pan. Place the dough on a hot frying pan and bake the pita bread for a few minutes on each side. As soon as bubbles appear on the surface of the dough, the pita bread can be turned over.
9. Place the finished pita bread on a wooden board and sprinkle with water from a spray bottle. Cover with a clean linen towel. Do the same with all the tortillas. Leave under a towel until completely cool.
10. Store the finished, cooled pita bread in a plastic bag to prevent it from becoming stale.
11. Homemade pita bread for shawarma was a success. Enjoy!
