Ingredients

3 1/3 cups flour, unbleached all-purpose
1 each yeast, active dry dried, package
2 teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon cumin seeds or poppy seeds
2/3 cups yogurt, plain plain, natural
1 cup water warm
2 tablespoons butter melted
1 x flour, all-purpose for rolling
1 x vegetable oil for cooking

Directions

Sift flour into a big bowl. Add the yeast and salt and stir in the seeds. Mix the yogurt, water and butter together and stir into the flour. Turn the dough out onto a floured board. Knead for 5 minutes. Put the dough back in the bowl, cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled in size. (2 to 4 hours depending on the warmth of the room.)

Punch down dough and knead for 1 minute. Cut it into 8 equal pieces and roll each into a ball. Sprinkle a little four on work surface and roll each ball out to an oval shape. Heat a griddle or heavy based frying pan until quite hot, brush it lightly with some oil, and cook each bread for about 3 minutes on each side. Keep the breads warm, wrapped in a clean tea towel.

Reviews

Nice easy recipe, but next time I would use less salt. Didn't rise as I didn't have anywhere warm to leave it, but still made plenty and tasted great.

Quick Graham Bread

This is a fantastic recipe, I've made it many times. It results in a bread with a similar texture to corn bread but wheaty / grahammy tasting. Slighty sweet so a good breakfast bread, but not too sweet to eat with dinner. I've found you can substitute vegetable oil for the shortening without changing the result much except that the thinner batter makes a smoother crust (cutting back slightly on the liquid will give the same craggy crust that the shortening version produces). I've also substituted buttermilk for the milk with good result.
