Ingredients

6 Persons

  • 150 g
    warm water
  • 5 g
    fresh yeast
  • 10 g
    raw sugar
  • 220 g
    flour
  • 30 g
    Vegan Protein Neutral
  • 5 g
    salt

Preparation

  • 1

    Mix the warm water, yeast, and sugar in a large bowl.

  • 2

    Add the flour and Vegan Protein and mix. Transfer the dough to a floured working surface. Add salt. Knead for about 7 minutes until it turns into a smooth dough.

  • 3

    Roll the dough into a ball, put back into the bowl, and cover with a dish towel. Let the dough rest for 1 hour to rise.

  • 4

    Divide the dough into 6 even balls. Cover again and let rest for another 20 minutes.

  • 5

    Dust your working surface with flour. With a rolling pin, roll each ball out to about a half-centimeter thickness.

  • 6

    Heat the oil in a nonstick pan over medium heat. Put one pita bread into the pan. Flip after 10 seconds.

  • 7

    Cook on the other side for 10 seconds, then flip again. Continue to cook for 10 seconds per side until the pita bread starts to puff up. It should take 3-4 minutes for each pita.

  • 8

    Put the finished pitas onto a plate. Cover with a clean dish towel to keep warm and soft until they are ready to serve.

  • 9

    To fill your pita bread, simply slice into the edge of it. It should open up like a pocket.
