Total Time 2 hours 30 minutes

Prep Time 2 hours

Cook Time 30 minutes

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

Ingredients

2 1/4 teaspoons dry yeast
2 teaspoons salt
1 tablespoon sugar
4 cups all-purpose white flour
1 1/2 cups water
1 tablespoon olive oil

Steps:

Combine the yeast and sugar in a small bowl, add 1/2 cup of the warm water and let it stand for 10 minutes to proof and ferment it.
Dissolve the salt in the remaining warm water.
Put the flour in a large mixing bowl, making a well in the middle and put the dissolved yeast and salt water into it.
With your hands, blend it into a dough.
You may need a bit more or less water depending on your flour.
Knead the dough in the bowl with your fists for 10-15 minutes or until it is smooth.
Pour the oil over the dough and knead it again until the oil is absorbed.
Cover the dough in the bowl with a towel and set it in a draft free area to rise to double it's bulk (1-2 hours), then punch it down and knead it again for a few minutes.
Preheat your oven to 350°F.
Cut pieces of dough, egg size or larger, depending on the size of the pita desired, shape them into balls with your hands and roll them out over a lightly floured board or pastry cloth to 1/4 inch thickness.
Set 2 or 3 pites on a lightly oiled cookies sheet and bake them on the lower rack 2 to 3 minutes each side.
Pitas should be white and soft.
Wrap the baked pitas in a clean towel until they are cool, then store them in plastic bags to prevent them from drying out.
When you are ready to use them, heat a bit of oil in a shallow skillet and fry them a minute or so on each side, or until golden brown.
Use them immediately, because they get hard when they dry out.

GREEK CHOPPED SALAD WITH GRILLED PITA RECIPE | COOKING LIGHT

A chopped salad, full of contrasting flavors and textures and bound by a zingy vinaigrette, is a great quick and easy meal. Red bell peppers, romaine, cucumber, and cherry tomatoes are available year-round, making this satisfying main a staple worth keeping in rotation. We take the extra step of grilling the bell peppers along with the pita to add a bit of char and smoky depth. You could also broil the peppers until blackened and peel, and broil the pita until toasted. A can of unsalted cannellini beans is the pantry hero of this salad, though canned chickpeas would also work.
