Recipe by Aunty Fatima Sydow
FOOD LOVERS RECIPES
250 g plain flour
250 g self raising flour
1 tablespoon sugar
pinch of salt
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
330 ml mixture of lukewarm water and milk (½ and ½)
Preheat the oven to 140ºC.
Mix all the dry ingredients, add the liquid. Knead into a soft dough. To knead the dough, clench your hand into a fist, wet your knuckles with a little water, then press them repeatedly into the dough. Continue pressing and kneading until you have a soft, pliable dough. It should take about ten minutes.
Place the dough in a mixing bowl, cover it with cling film and leave it in a warm place to rise for 10 – 15 minutes.
Divide the dough into approx balls and place on a floured surface or board. Roll each into a long oval or round shape (depending on preference) about 0.5 cm/¼ in thick. Don’t roll them out too thinly or they’ll turn out like crisps.
Place them on a greased baking tray and put them in the center of the oven for 10 – 15 minutes. They are ready when they have puffed up a little. They should be soft and crumbly, not chewy. Serve fresh from the oven.
Makes approx 6 – 8.
