Ingredients
Main Ingredients (3-4 servings)
- Dry Yeast 2g
- Bread Flour 150g
- Salt 2g
- Sugar 10g
- Leafy Greens (to taste)
- Chicken (to taste)
- Ground Meat Mix (to taste)
Seasonings
- [A] Mayonnaise 2 tbsp
- [A] Ketchup 1.5 tbsp
- [A] Grated Garlic 1 tsp
- [A] Milk 1 tsp
- [A] Curry Powder 0.5 tsp
- [A] Ichimi Togarashi (Japanese Chili Powder) (a pinch)
Steps
- In a bowl, combine lukewarm water (approx. 100g), warmed to about body temperature, and dry yeast (2g).
- Add bread flour (150g), salt (2g), and sugar (10g). Mix until no dry flour remains.
- Once the ingredients start to come together and become crumbly, gather them into a ball in the bowl and knead.
- Transfer the dough to a flat surface and knead using the heel of your hand, pressing and stretching the dough until smooth, for about 10 to 15 minutes. The key is to knead until a thin membrane forms when the dough is stretched.
- Shape the dough into a ball, place it seam-side down in the bowl, and let it proof in a warm place for about 1 hour, or until it has doubled in size.
- After proofing, turn the dough out onto a flat surface and gently press it down to remove the air bubbles.
- Divide the de-gassed dough into 4 equal portions and shape each into a ball.
- Lightly dust the dough balls with bread flour and roll them out into circles about 15cm (6 inches) in diameter.
- Heat a frying pan over medium heat and place the rolled-out dough into the pan.
- Cook until small bubbles start to appear on the surface and the bottom is lightly browned, then flip and cook the other side.
- Continue to cook without touching, and the dough will puff up.
- Once puffed, flip again and continue to flip occasionally until the entire pita bread is evenly puffed.
- Once puffed all around, it's done. Remove from the pan and let cool slightly.
- Cook the remaining dough portions in the same way. A good indicator for flipping is when small bubbles begin to form on the surface.
- Once cooled, cut the cooked pita bread in half to create a pocket.
- If the pocket doesn't open easily, you can carefully make a cut with kitchen scissors.
- In a bowl, combine mayonnaise (2 tbsp), ketchup (1.5 tbsp), grated garlic (1 tsp), milk (1 tsp), curry powder (0.5 tsp), and ichimi togarashi (a pinch) to make the kebab-style sauce.
- Prepare your favorite leafy greens (like lettuce or cabbage), chicken (e.g., steamed chicken), and ground meat mix (e.g., pre-made frozen hamburger patties).
- Stuff the pita bread pockets with the kebab-style sauce and your prepared fillings to complete the dish. For a fun serving style, arrange the fillings on the table and let everyone assemble their own, or stuff them just before eating.
