Pide Bread

Ingredients

• •1 tablespoon dried yeast
• •1 teaspoon sugar
• •1 cup warm water
• •2 tablespoons olive oil
• •2 teaspoons sea salt
• •3 cups bread; (high protein) flour
• •1 cup plain, thick yoghurt
• •sea salt

Directions

1. 1Mix the yeast, sugar, water and 3 tablespoons of yoghurt in a large mixing bowl then leave to "foam" for 15 minutes.
2. 2Add the olive oil, flour and salt and mix well with a wooden spoon until thick then turn out onto a floured bench and begin to knead. Knead very well, adding additional flour if necessary to stock the dough sticking to the board, until the dough is satiny and elastic.
3. 3Shape the dough into a ball and transfer to a lightly oiled bowl. Cover with plastic wrap and allow the dough to rise for 1 hour, or until the dough has doubled in size.
4. 4Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 220c (425 Fahrenheit). (and a baking stone if using) and oil baking trays.
5. 5Remove the dough from the bowl and divide into 4-5 even pieces and roll each piece into an oval shape. Flatten the ovals with your fingertips, making sure the dough is about 1cm. (1/3 inch) thick. Brush lightly with the remaining yoghurt and sprinkle with sea salt.
6. 6Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes until the breads are puffy and golden and serve warm.
