Flat bread is very similar to our pancakes. It's also made of flour, water and salt. Sometimes, it's added with bulking agent. Originated from ancient Egypt and Sumer. Flat bread has different versions all over the world, such as mixing with chili powder, curry powder, corn starch, olive oil, etc. This time the recipe was fermented with yeast. The bread will be very soft and chewy. Soft bread with fragrant cheese and bacon is absolutely the best choice for energy breakfast and delicious night snack. The formula can be made of about 4 medium-sized cakes or 8 small cakes.
Step1:Pour yeast and salt into a large container with flour. Don't put yeast next to salt or sugar.
Step2:Dig a hole in the middle. Pour in a third of the water.
Step3:Mix the ingredients by hand.
Step4:During this period, add the remaining water. Continue to soften until a dough appears.
Step5:Pour the dough on a clean surface coated with olive oil. Knead for 5 to 10 minutes until the dough is smooth and elastic, and soft, hands free. Do not add flour to keep the dough moist.
Step6:Put the dough with larger gluten into a clean olive oil container. Cover it with a layer of fresh-keeping film or wet towel. Put it at room temperature and let it expand twice. (usually one hour. Two or three hours longer is OK.).
Step7:During dough fermentation, pour a small spoon of olive oil into a frying pan. Heat it over medium heat until it is 6 minutes hot. Put in the bacon granules / strips. Stir fry for several times until the bacon is colored (no need to stir fry completely, and then reheat again). Take out bacon and put it on a plate for later use. Don't pour out the oil left when frying bacon. Leave it in the pot for later use.
Step8:Pour the fermented dough on the surface with a little olive oil.
Step9:Press air out gently by hand.
Step10:It is made up of four equal small spheres. It is recommended to use an electronic scale. Make sure that the weight of each dough is the same.

Step12:Heat the pan with bacon oil over medium heat again. Fry each side of the rolled dough for 3 to 4 minutes (6 to 8 minutes for each).

Cooking tips:Sometimes I make a lot of flat bread. Then I seal it and freeze it. When you need to use it, take it out to defrost, sprinkle cheese and other seasonings to bake it, and then you can continue to eat it. When fermenting, cover a layer of fresh-keeping film or clean wet towel on the top of the container, which can effectively prevent the dough surface from drying, thus hindering fermentation. The container used for putting fermented dough should be coated with edible oil inside, which is conducive to dough fermentation. Pay attention to the use of warm water when mixing. Note that the temperature must not be overheated. Otherwise, yeast will lose its function. If you don't have an oven, put it in the microwave and turn it for 2 to 3 minutes. Take it out and eat it.
