- 200 – 220 mL of water (⅘ cup)
- 1 teaspoon of salt
- 2 teaspoons of sugar
Some “Sweet and Savory” advice- always pick the freshest of the fresh ingredients.
Procedure:
- Grab a mixing bowl and make sure that it is large enough to avoid excess mess from the mixing.
- Pour in the flour, the sugar, and the yeast. Mix well until each ingredient looks evenly combined with each other.
- Add some water, avoid putting too much. Just add little by little.
- Massage to combine, it should at least have a thick and moist texture.
- While mixing, add 1 teaspoon of salt.
- Massage it thoroughly until you achieve that perfectly-textured dough. You may take it out of the mixing bowl and continue kneading on a clean surface, preferably on a large board or a stainless tray.
- Pour in some vegetable oil and massage it all over your dough.
- Put it in the oven and let it rise for 1 ½ hours. Make sure that its container is securely covered.
- Once done, take it out of the oven. Take it out of the container and massage the dough again.
- Grease a pan, put the dough in, and let it rise for another 30 minutes.
- After that, grease another pan, put in the dough, and push it lightly until it sets down evenly. Cook it over low heat with the lid on.
- Next, grease a plate and turn the bread upside down. You may also use parchment paper as an alternative.
- Cook the other side over low fire, still with the lid on.
- Finally, enjoy it!
You can either serve it while hot and crispy or you can also let it cool for a bit.
