Bereiding



This bread can be in the oven in around 40 minutes from weighing out the ingredients.Place the flour, sugar and salt onto a clean surface. Mix together the water, milk and yeast and allow to sit for 10 minutes in a warm place until frothy.

Make a well in the centre of the flour and pour in the liquid, work into a dough and kneed for 5 minutes until smooth. Allow it to sit for 5 minutes, then divide into 4 even pieces and roll into balls.

Take each ball and flatten out into a long shape, place onto a baking tray dusted with semolina or polenta. They should look rough.

Cover with plastic wrap and prove for 40 minutes - they will be fluffy and soft - brush with milk and sprinkle with onion and sesame seeds.

Make a few indentations with the tips of your fingers then bake in the oven at 230°C for 20 minutes until crisp and golden.

Notities

Crusty Flat Bread With Onion and Sesame Seeds



The secret to putting a good picnic together is to make a few special things and then mix them up with your favourites. I have included a great recipe for flat Lebanese style breads that you can make on the morning in 1 hour. I like eating the leftover roast meat especially lamb, which will go nicely with the aubergine dip and red pepper tortilla. Look for some cured meat like prosciutto and salami from a good deli or supermarket; it is always good to ask for a taste before you buy. The rest is up to you; don't forget a nice piece of cheese, a bottle of wine, some fruit and a jar of gherkins.
