Ingredients
- 1⅛ cups warm water
- 2 tbsp vegetable oil
- ½ tsp sugar
- 1½ tsp salt
- 3 cups plain flour, plus extra for dusting
- 1½ tsp instant yeast
Method
- Stir the yeast and sugar into the warm water and leave 5–10 minutes until foamy.
- Mix in the flour, salt, and oil and knead 8–10 minutes until smooth and elastic. Cover and leave in a warm place about 1½ hours, until doubled.
- Punch down and divide into 8 equal pieces. Roll each into a ball, cover, and rest 15 minutes.
- Roll each ball out on a floured surface into a thin round, about 8 inches across.
- Heat a dry cast-iron skillet or griddle over high heat until very hot. Lay a round on it and cook about 1 minute, until it puffs and browns in spots; flip and cook 30 seconds more.
- Wrap the finished breads in a clean cloth as you go to keep them soft. Repeat with the rest and serve warm.
