Mohammeds Flat Bread
- 1 package active dry yeast
- 1 teaspoon sugar
- 2 cups warm (105 to 110F) water
- 4 1/2 cups chick-pea flour
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon black cumin seeds or poppy seeds
- Combine the yeast, sugar, and warm water in a small bowl; set aside until foamy, 5 to 15 minutes.
- (If the yeast doesnt bubble up, discard the mixture and start again with fresh ingredients.)
- In a large bowl, combine the chick-pea flour and salt and add the yeast mixture.
- Gradually sprinkle in cold water 1 tablespoon at a time to make a soft dough that easily pulls away from the sides of the bowl.
- Knead the bread for 10 minutes on a lightly floured work surface.
- Return the dough to the bowl, cover, and set aside to rise in a warm place until doubled, 1 hour.
- Place 2 baking sheets in the oven.
- Preheat the oven to 425F.
- Divide the dough into 4 balls.
- Roll out each ball on a lightly floured surface into an 18-inch long oblong, between 1/4 and 1/2 inch thick.
- Divide the cumin seeds among the 4 breads.
- When the baking sheets are very hot, remove, sprinkle each lightly with chick-pea flour, and place 1 loaf on each tray.
- Bake each bread until golden, 8 to 10 minutes.
- Repeat with the remaining 2 loaves.
- Serve warm or at room temperature.
