GRILLED TURKEY PITAS

Move over hamburgers! My Greek-style turkey sandwich filling is hearty enough to make a meal in a pita pocket. The yogurt adds creaminess and substance. -Penny Malcolm, Americus, Georgia

  • Soak the bamboo skewers in water for 30 minutes at least.Pro tip - Soaking the skewers in water will prevent them from burning on the grill so do not skip this step.
  • Heat the grill or cast iron pan on high. Add a tablespoon of oil on the grill. Then place the skewers on the grill. Pro tip - unlike beef, turkey is leaner so we need to brush the pan with oil otherwise the skewers will stick to the grill.

  • Put the yeast, 1tsp of the sugar and 50ml (approx. ¼ cup) of the lukewarm water in a small bowl and mix until the yeast and sugar dissolve. Set aside for about 5 minutes until the mixture starts to bubble up.
  • In a large bowl, mix the flour with the salt and the remaining sugar. Add the oil, yeast and half of your remaining lukewarm water, and mix. It will start to form a shaggy mess at first, but keep mixing. Slowly add more water until the dough comes together as a ball. You need it to be smooth and elastic, and for the dough not to stick to your fingers when pinched. (Do not add all your water in at once. Keep mixing and adding some water until the dough starts to get the shape. It depends on your flour, so you might need less or more water than in the recipe.)
  • Transfer the dough to lightly floured surface, and cut into 7 pieces, each piece about 95g. Shape them into round balls, cover them in a clean slightly damp towel, and leave them to rest about 7 to 10 minutes.
