Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, mix the semolina, flour, yeast, sugar, anise and salt.
  2. Add the oil, then pour in the lukewarm water little by little while kneading to get a soft, slightly sticky dough.
  3. Cover and let rest for 30 minutes in a warm spot, until the dough has risen slightly.
  4. Heat a nonstick pan over medium-low heat. Divide the dough and flatten each piece into a disc about 1 cm thick.
  5. Cook the flatbreads for 4 to 5 minutes per side, until golden and bubbles form.
  6. Set them on a rack and serve warm, drizzled with melted butter and honey.

Variations and tips

Savory version. Leave out the sugar and add an extra pinch of salt, then serve with fresh cheese.
