Ingredients

Persons-+

225grams of Tzatziki cheese or herb cheese

420 gram of flour
10,5 grammes of dried yeast
1,5 tbsp sugar or honey
1,5 tbsp olive oil
150 ml milk lukewarm
225 ml of lukewarm water
1,5 tsp of salt

Preparation

Mix the flour and yeast together in a mixing bowl and slowly pour in the wet ingredients and sugar or honey.

Mix/knead for about 10 minutes to form a nice smooth dough.

Add the salt and knead for another 5 minutes or so.

Let the dough rise in the mixing bowl for about an hour under a damp tea towel. The dough will start to rise and roughly double in size.

Divide the dough into 6 balls and roll out into nice flat rounds. (In Greece, pitas are often folded in half instead of being cut open. They are folded around the filling like a wrap, so to speak. They can therefore be larger than supermarket pitas) Use flour to prevent them from sticking to the countertop or worktop.

Fry in a hot pan with a little olive oil. Fry one side for about 2 minutes, and the other side for about a minute.

Then top half of the pita with the tzatziki cheese and fold it in half. Sprinkle some grated cheese over the top as well.

Bake a little further until the cheese melts. Be generous with the cheese as the pitas are quite large and very fluffy.
