Good For Food!

Bread is one of the best things we have and it goes well with practically every meal imaginable, even other types of bread, and freshly baked bread is a blessing. The smell when it’s baking, the warmth of it when it’s fresh, not many things can beat a good bread!
In this recipe we will focus on an easy flat bread made to be baked on a grittle, a pan or even on a hot stone in a fireplace and it is really easy and quick to make so it can be worked into almost any cooking routine and elevate the entire meal, whatever you are making.

You will need…. Stuff!
And here’s a list of that stuff!

For 6 pieces
200 mL water (roughly)
15 grams of yeast (fresh. If using dread about 1 tsp will do)
1 tsp good salt (never skip the salt when making bread, it is crucial)
1 tbsp good oil (whatever vegetable oil you prefer, just not engine oils. That’s really important!)
5 dL / 2 cups of wheat flour (no additives)

Mix the yeast into the lukewarm water and if the yeast is dried, give it about 10 minutes to wake up, and then add the oil and the salt and allow the latter to dissolve.
Start mixing in the flour a little at a time using a fork until all the flour has been added.
At this point it is better that the dough is a little too wet than a little too dry. It is easier to add more flour than more water.
Shape the dough into a ball and cover it with a moistened and clean towel (I’m not gonna say that again, Will!) and let it rest for 30 minutes. The dough will have risen a bit by then.
Sprinkle the ball of dough lightly with flour and give it a quick kneading before dividing it into six equal pieces.
Dust your surface with flour and roll each piece until they are about 1,25 cm / 0.5 inch thick and bake immediately on a hot pan about 1-2 minutes on each side.
Serve warm. And enjoy!

Tips and tricks… Some, at least.
You can shape the breads by hand if a work surface isn’t available say you are camping or similar. In that case oil your hands lightly to make handling the dough easier.
You can also add all kinds of herbs and spices, even things that come in chunks, to this recipe as long as you keep in mind that it needs to be cooked in the same time as the bread or you will have to pre-cook the chunky stuff.
