This Turkish bread is so delicious and simple that anyone can make it at home. The middle of the bread is empty, so it’s great for wrapping around your favorite food or dipping with curry.
As a wrapper – Chicken Shawarma, Teriyaki Meatballs, Salisbury Steak.
Curry – Butter Chicken.

Watch how to do it:
What do you need:
✤ Dough [6 pieces of 18cm]
- 500g Bread flour or all-purpose flour (4cups)
- 160ml Warm milk (2/3cup)
- 160ml Warm water (2/3cup)
- 10g Instant dry yeast (1.5tbsp)
- 10g Sugar (1tbsp)
- 8g Salt (0.8tbsp)

✤ Topping (optional)
- 20g Melted unsalted butter (or olive oil)
- Chopped parsley


How to make:
- Pour warm milk, warm water, sugar and yeast into a container. Mix them well.
- Add flour and salt and mix well. Knead the dough by hand until it’s no longer sticky and the surface is smooth.
- Cover the dough and let it proof until it has doubled in size (about 1 hour).
- Divide the dough into 6 pieces and shape them into rounds. Cover them with a plastic bag.
- Press them out with a roller to a round shape of about 18 cm and 5 mm thick.
- Turn on the stove and heat the pan over medium heat.
- Bake on both sides. When lots of bubbles have formed, turn the bread over to the other side.
- When the bread pops like a balloon, turn the heat down to low.
- Cover the bread with a cloth to prevent it from drying out while baking.
- It’s better to use a thick pan than a thin one, as the bread won’t rise in a thin pan.
- Brush the bread with a little butter or olive oil and enjoy.

What to serve Turkish bread:
I usually make extra portions and freeze them to prepare meals. It can be prepared as a quick dinner with chicken shawarma or Thai chicken satay as a wrapper or used as a dipping bread for butter chicken.
