Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams All-purpose flour
- 300 milliliters Warm water
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
Instructions
Sift the all-purpose flour into a large mixing bowl to remove lumps and ensure a smooth dough.
Dissolve the salt into the warm water and gradually add it to the flour, mixing continuously with a spoon or your hands.
Add the olive oil to the mixture and knead the dough until it forms a smooth, elastic consistency. This should take about 8-10 minutes.
Cover the dough with a clean kitchen towel or plastic wrap and let it rest for 30 minutes at room temperature.
Divide the dough into 8 equal-sized balls and roll each one out into a thin, round sheet about 8-10 inches in diameter.
Heat a large, non-stick skillet or griddle over medium-high heat. Do not add oil or grease.
Place one rolled-out dough onto the hot skillet and cook for 30-45 seconds, or until bubbles start forming and light golden spots appear on the bottom.
Flip the lavash and cook the other side for another 20-30 seconds, ensuring it doesn’t burn but fully cooks through.
Remove the cooked lavash from the skillet and place it on a clean towel. Cover with another towel to keep it soft and pliable while you cook the remaining lavash.
Repeat the process for all dough portions. Stack the cooked lavash and keep them covered to maintain freshness.
Serve warm or store in an airtight container for up to 2 days.
