Just stuffed myself silly with fresh pitas and hummous. For those that like pitas, but have never bothered to make it themselves, I really recommend it — and there's nothing to it.
- Pour a cup of lukewarm water into a bowl and add some yeast.
- When it's bubbling add a bunch of sugar and salt and whisk then knead in flour.
- Let that rise for a couple hours.
- Make small balls of dough and roll them out to about the thickness of a tortilla (yes, very thin!).
- Fry first one side then the other in an almost-smoking pan with a little olive oil.
While you're waiting for the dough to rise is a real good time to make the hummous of course (which is just lemon/lime, garlic, tahini, chick peas, and spices to taste all blended up).
