Frequently Asked Questions:

It’s cool that only two ingredients give this result, but it doesn’t have a high nutritional value, does it ?

That’s fine because regular pitas don’t have high nutritional values either. Also, pita bread is supposed to be served alongside vegetables, chicken, meat, and dressing — these ingredients make the meal nutritious.

What about salt?

I don’t like my pitas salty. If you prefer yours salty, add ½ teaspoon of salt to the flour.

Shouldn’t I add water to the dough?

This recipe gets its liquid from the potatoes.

Ingredients

▢ 2½ cups flour
▢ 4 potatoes

Instructions

Peel and dice the potatoes.
Cook the potatoes in boiling water until they soften.
Strain and transfer to a bowl.
Add 1½ cups of flour and mix with a wooden spoon while mashing the potatoes.
Once completely combined, add ½ cup of flour and knead into a smooth dough.
Rub the dough with a little oil then cover it and let it rest for an hour.
Heat up an oiled Teflon pan on a medium-high flame.
Put ½ cup of flour in a small bowl and place it close to the stove.
With floured hands, rip a piece of the dough (about the size of a big plum), dip it in the flour on both sides, and roll it out on a dry surface to a 0.08 inch (2 mm) thickness.
Cook in the pan for a few minutes on each side.
Remove onto a plate with a towel.

Tips

Cover the pitas while they rest.
You’ll notice the pitas swelling like a balloon then flattening down.
