About Lafa bread
Lafa bread is a soft, fluffy flatbread originating from Middle Eastern cuisine, commonly used to wrap savory fillings or accompany meals. Made with basic ingredients such as flour, water, yeast, olive oil, and a pinch of salt, it is traditionally baked or cooked on a hot skillet, resulting in a pliable texture perfect for rolling or dipping. Lafa bread is a versatile staple, often paired with dishes like falafel, hummus, or grilled meats. While it provides a source of carbohydrates and some healthy fats from olive oil, it is relatively low in fiber compared to whole-grain alternatives and may be high in calories if consumed in large portions. For a healthier option, whole-wheat flour can be used to increase fiber content and boost nutrients. Its simplicity and adaptability make Lafa bread a beloved choice in Middle Eastern cuisine and beyond.
