What to get ready

  • Photograph of Flour Flour 1.8 lb
  • Photograph of Dry yeast Dry yeast 0.7 oz
  • Photograph of Salt Salt 0.8 oz
  • Photograph of Honey Honey ¾ cup
  • Photograph of Unsalted butter Unsalted butter 5.6 oz

Method

  1. 1 Mix flour with yeast, water, and salt to form a thin paste, then let it ferment for 8 hours until it becomes slightly sour.
  2. 2 Allowing the dough to ferment for 8 hours is essential; if the dough hasn't fermented, there won't be any air bubbles on the surface of the bread.
  3. 3 Heat a flat pan until it's moderately hot, then pour in a ladleful of paste and let it spread in a circle.
  4. 4 Fry on only one side without flipping; the top side should be densely covered with air bubbles like a honeycomb.
  5. 5 The cake is done when the top is dry and the air bubbles have closed.
  6. 6 Serve with melted butter, honey, and hulba fenugreek foam.
