Bread (Flat) - Khubz Arabi - Bahrain 🇧🇭

A little about categorizing bread. Our system is not scientific by a long shot. We've placed them into table, flat, dessert, and fried. Table bread may include loaves of sandwich-type bread or something designed to serve as a loaf or dinner bun at the table. Flat is generally un-yeasted bread that is flat (duh!). Fried can be pan-fried or deep-fried. Dessert is for delectables such as banana bread. The words dressing and stuffing are interchangeable, depending where you live. Many will contain bread, others may not. This is dizzying.

Bread (Flat) - Khubz Arabi - Bahrain 🇧🇭

Bahrain-bread-1024x685.jpg
1 ½ cups warm water
1 1/4 ounce package active dry yeast
1 ½ teaspoons salt
3 cups all-purpose flour sifted
1 tablespoon vegetable oil

In a large bowl, pour in the warm water and add in the yeast, stir until the yeast is dissolved. Add in the salt. Start gradually adding in the flour and oil while kneading, you want to knead until the dough is smooth and elastic. Put the dough into a large greased bowl and turn dough to grease all sides. Cover with a dry tea towel and let rise in a warm place until doubled in size about 1 ½ hours. Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Punch dough gently. Divide the dough into 12 equal portions and shape them into smooth balls. Place on a floured work surface and dust tops lightly with flour. Cover with a dry tea towel and let rest for 15 minutes. Roll out each ball into a 6-inch diameter circle. Place on greased baking sheets. Bake for 10-12 minutes or until the bread puffs. Do not leave unattended while baking.
