Turkish Pita Bread (Pide)

Ingredients:
20g fresh or 1 packet of dried yeast (I used dried)
1 tsp Sugar
250ml warm water
450g flour (I used the '00' Pizza flour am sure you can use plain or strong too)
1 tsp salt
2 tbsp sunflower oil
2 tbsp greek/plain yoghurt
plus 1 tsp Milk/1 tsp oil/sesame seeds

Method:
I mixed it all on dough setting on my breadmaker but if you don't have one mix:
1. mix yeast sugar & water until dissolved
2. add flour and knead gently
3. add salt, oil and yoghurt and knead until you can form a ball
4. put dough into a bowl, cover with a tea-towel and leave to proof for an hour in a warm place
5. after the hour, add dough onto a lightly floured surface and shape to a form round/square/triangle..whatever you like
6. cover baking tray with baking paper and move dough onto tray
7. cover with a tea-towel and proof again for about 20min
8. after second proofing push your finger into the dough several times to form little dips
9. mix 1 tbsp oil/1tbsp milk and lightly brush dough with its, sprinkle with sesame seeds
10. pre-heat oven to 200degrees C fan oven and bake for 20-25 minutes
11. once baked you can leave it to cool down or cover with a tea-towel if you want the crust a bit softer

Serve with lamb gyros, greek coleslaw & tsatsiki.
Enjoy!
