Instructions

  1. Mix the flour, salt and yeast, then add the lukewarm water and oil while kneading until you have a smooth dough.
  2. Let the dough rise, covered, for 1 hour 30 minutes at room temperature.
  3. Divide it into 4 balls and flatten them into thick discs about 2 cm high.
  4. Preheat the oven to 240 °C on the lowest shelf and place the breads on an oiled tray.
  5. Brush with milk, sprinkle with sesame, then bake for 20 to 25 minutes until the crust is well golden.
  6. Let cool slightly before cutting.

Variations and tips

Classic oven version. Without a tandoor, bake on a pizza stone heated to the maximum, which gives a crust very close to the original.
