Method

Ingredients

Preheat the oven to 200°C.

In a large mixing bowl, combine the water, yeast, sugar and salt using a wooden spoon, adding a little olive oil to create an elastic dough.

Turn out onto a floured surface and knead until soft. Place in a bowl and cover. Leave to rise for at least an hour. Separate the dough into balls and roll each out thinly on a lightly-floured surface.

Mix the sumac into the melted butter and brush over the breads. Transfer to a baking tray and bake for 10 minutes, or until cooked through and crisp.
Cook’s note: Sumac is a lemon-flavoured spice available at most spice shops and delis.
