Ingredients

The following ingredients have 6 Servings
  • 300 g (2 1/2 cups) bread flour plus more to dust
  • 1 tbsp sugar
  • 1 tsp dry active yeast
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 130 g (scant ½ cup) Greek yogurt (or vegan yogurt)
  • 120 ml (1/2 cup) water ( (lukewarm))
  • 3 tbsp olive oil plus more to fry

Instruction

  • Put the flour, sugar, yeast and salt in a bowl (or a stand mixer fitted with the dough hook). Mix together to combine.
  • Add the water, yogurt and olive oil. Mix together with a spoon and once the dough comes together use your hands to knead in the bowl until well combined. Mix for 5 minutes in a stand mixer until dough forms a ball around the blade and becomes elastic.
  • Cover the bowl and leave the dough to rise for an hour in a warm spot.
  • Tip the dough onto a well-floured tabletop. Briefly knead and form into a log. Cut into six equal portions. Keep any dough you are not using covered with a damp cloth.
  • Roll each portion out, adding more flour if the dough is sticky. Keep the pitas separated by greaseproof paper and covered with a damp cloth once rolled out.
  • Heat a large non-stick frying pan and wipe with a little olive oil. Cook the pita over high heat, for a couple of minutes per side until nicely coloured. Keep warm or pan fry/grill to reheat before serving.
