Omani Bread

Omani bread has a variety of shapes and sizes. One of them is thick and shaped like a huge round. Another is the size of a tiny circular dinner plate that is crisp and thin.

Bread is popular in eateries to be served accompanying meals, and most Omanis prepare their own at home. There are also bakeries.

Ingredients:

2 cups all-purpose flour; 1 cup water (depending on how you plan to cook it); 1 teaspoon of salt

Instructions:

• Mix together the flour and salt and slowly add water.

• If you are making the dough to cook by placing the dough on the hot griddle with your palm, make it very sticky

• Alternatively, if you are making the dough to pour and spread, then you want the batter to be thin enough to pour so add more water as needed and combine well.

• Heat a hot griddle, to medium-high heat. (please note a nonstick surface does not work for making this bread, use stainless or cast iron.

• Once you make a circle with the dough, use a scraper or paint chipper as soon as the bread crisps on the bottom to loosen and remove.

• Remove and serve warm
