Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 300 grams all-purpose flour (or whole wheat flour for a nuttier flavor)
- 180 milliliters lukewarm water
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon sugar (optional, for mild sweetness)
- 1 teaspoon dry active yeast
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour and salt.
In a small bowl, mix the lukewarm water, sugar (if using), and dry active yeast. Let it sit for 5-10 minutes until foamy.
Add the olive oil to the yeast mixture and stir to combine.
Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, mixing with a spoon or your hands until a shaggy dough forms.
Transfer the dough to a lightly floured surface and knead for about 7-10 minutes until the dough is smooth and elastic.
Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, cover it with a clean kitchen towel or plastic wrap, and let it rest in a warm place for 1 hour or until it doubles in size.
Once the dough has risen, punch it down and divide it into 6 equal portions.
Roll each portion into a thin, round or oval sheet using a rolling pin. Aim for about 2-3mm thickness for a traditional lavash texture.
Preheat a large, dry skillet or griddle over medium heat.
Cook each lavash on the hot skillet for 1-2 minutes per side, until golden brown spots appear and the bread puffs slightly.
Stack the cooked lavash on a plate and cover with a clean kitchen towel to keep them soft and warm.
Serve warm or at room temperature. Lavash can be paired with dips, wrapped around fillings, or enjoyed on its own!
