SYRIAN BREAD

Puff rolls, these should be hallow in the center, but sometimes and they were not. Traveled extremely well in my husbands lunch. As with most of my recipes, I haven't got a clue where they came from. At the time I was writing the recipe down, all I was concerned with was "Do I have the ingredients".

SYRIAN MANOUSHI BREAD

This recipe is from Greg Malouf, master of modern Middle Eastern cuisine. Manoushi bread is the number one snack food all around Lebanon and Syria. Essentially, it is a sort of pizza although a little bit softer and more chewy than the Italian version. Having tested numerous bread doughs, in all sorts of ovens and on all sorts of baking sheets, the one thing we can say with certainty is that this style of Middle Eastern flat bread is immeasurably improved by baking on a hot stone. Most kitchenware stores stock them - they're often called pizza stones. They're not expensive, and if your family are pizza fans they're especially well worth the investment. Prep time doesn't include rising.

Steps:

  • Sift the flour into a large mixing bowl and add the yeast and salt.
  • Dissolve the sugar in the warm water and dribble it into the dry ingredients until they absorb enough to make a sticky dough, how much water is required will entirely depend upon your flour.
  • Mix in the olive oil and use your hands - or the dough hook on your electric mixer - to knead the dough until it is smooth and silky. It will take about 10 minutes.
  • Lightly oil the ball of dough and put it into a bowl.
  • Cover and leave in a warm place to rise for 2 hours, by which time it should have at least doubled in size.
  • Knock the air out of the dough, then tip it out onto a floured work surface. Cut the dough into12 portions, then lightly flour each one and put them on a tray, covered, for another 10 minutes.
  • When ready to cook, roll each portion out to a 15 cm (6 in) circle and cover with the topping of your choice.
  • Bake in a hot oven (450 -500f) until done to your liking.

  • Set a pizza stone on the bottom rack of the oven and preheat the oven to 500°. In a bowl, combine the water and yeast and let stand until foamy, about 10 minutes.
  • In a food processor, pulse the flour with the salt. With the machine on, pour in the yeast mixture and then the warm milk and process until the dough forms a ball. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured work surface and knead it a few times. Form the dough into a ball. Lightly oil a bowl with olive oil. Transfer the dough to the bowl and turn to coat; cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let the dough rise in a warm place until doubled in bulk, about 1 hour.
  • Lightly dust a work surface with flour. Punch down the dough and cut it in half. Cut each half into 8 pieces and roll them into balls, then flatten into 6-inch rounds. Arrange the rounds on the work surface or on floured baking sheets; cover with plastic wrap. Let rise until puffy, 25 minutes.
  • Using a lightly floured pizza peel, slide 4 of the rounds onto the hot pizza stone at a time and bake for about 5 minutes, until the pitas puff up. Serve hot or wrap in foil to keep warm.

  • Syrian Shawarma. Shawarma is one of the most famous street foods in the Middle East. The roots of this delicious dish go back to the Levant and the Ottoman Empire, when, in 1906, Sadeeq Khabaz left his restaurant job in Bursa and traveled to Damascus to open a shawarma restaurant.
  • Manakish. Traditionally, women baked the dough for manakish in the morning for their family’s daily bread. The round bread is baked spread with cheese, meat, zaatar, or tomato sauce, looking much like a pizza.
  • Falafel. In Syria, falafel is very famous and you can find specialized falafel shops in any city, town, or village. Syrians often buy falafel ready-made, rather than preparing it at home.
  • Yabrak (Stuffed Vine Leaves) The Syrian yabrak plate goes back to Ottoman times. The name yabrak is Turkish, meaning leaves of the vine. Yabrak became popular in the Levant as an appetizer or a main course.
  • Sheikh Al-Mahshi. The main ingredient of Sheikh Al-Mahshi is zucchini, along with ground beef or chicken and yogurt. It has a unique flavor but takes a long time to prepare; you have to scrap out the zucchini first then fill it with meat and pine nuts.
