For the Pita Bread
Take a cup of luke warm water add instant yeast and sugar, mix it well and leave it for minutes to forth. Once it froths, the yeast is ready to use.
Take a mixing bowl ( I used a food processor to knead the dough) add all purpose flour , baking powder, oil, salt, mix it well, add the yeast mixture and mix it well adding more water as required to make a soft smooth dough. Oil a bowl and place the dough in it. Cover the bowl with the plastic cling leave it rise for an hour or until it doubles in volume.
Once it doubles in volume take out it the dough and fold the dough. Roll the dough, make even size balls around 8 or according to the size you desire.
In the meantime , line and oil a tray with aluminium foil or parchment paper . Preheat your oven at 200 degree.
Press each dough with your palm to make a thick circle. Place them in the oven tray. Leave them to rise again for 15 to 20 minutes .
Bake them in a preheat oven for 10 to 15 minutes. When its done take it out from the oven, brush them with butter or oil and the pita bread is ready to serve.
See how Soft and pillowy is the Pita Bread!
Serve with hummus or Roasted Red Pepper Hummus
To make the Roasted Red Pepper Hummus
Wash and dry the red bell pepper the oil it well and roast i on the gas flame or bake it for 15 to 20 minutes until burnt . I roasted the bell pepper on the gas flame.
Then place the pepper in a foil and warp it tightly for 10 minutes or until you are ready with the rest of the ingredients.
Take the bell pepper out of the foil and clean all the burnt skin and wash it under running water. Then cut it and remove the seeds. Chop it and keep aside.
In a food processor or blender, mix the chick peas / garbanzo beans, olive oil, red bell pepper, Tahini Paste - Homemade, lime juice, water, salt, paprika, chilly powder, blend until smooth , add water only if necessary , taste and adjust the seasonings.
Drizzle a little olive oil and ENJOY! with Pita Bread. It taste divine.
