this Yemenite Skillet Breads


Makes 8 breads.

3 cups of whole-wheat flour, 1/2 cup all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking powder, 2 teaspoon spice blend (thyme, oregano, sesame seeds), 1 teaspoon sugar, 1 teaspoon kosher salt, 1 1/4 cup water, or more as needed, 1 large egg, 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil

1/4 cup olive oil for cooking.

Mix together flours, baking powder, spices, salt, and sugar. Whisk in a separate bowl water, egg, and 2 tablespoons of olive oil. With mixer on low speed, add liquids to the flour to create a slightly firm dough. If necessary, add couple tablespoons of water to the ough to correct consistency. Knead the dough until it's smooth and supple (about 7 minutes).

Drizzle a little bit of oil into zip-tight plastic bag. Form the dough into a flat circle, place in the bag, and turn to coat the disk with oil. Let stand at room temperature for at least 1 and up to 2 hours. Dough needs to relax before making the bread.

Divide dough into 8 balls. On an unfloured surface, flatten the balls and roll into 5 1/2-inch rounds.

Add 1 tablespoon oil to a heavy-bottomed medium skillet, and heat over the medium heat. Place a round of dough in the skillet and cook until golden brown on the underside, about 2 minutes. Turn and cook another side for about 2 minutes more. Transfer to paper towels. Repeat with remaining dough, adding more oil as needed. Serve warm
