SEED ENCRUSTED PITA BREAD

I made up the HBin5 wholewheat bread with olive oil in readiness for my purchase today of a pizza stone.  Unfortunately it did not fit my camp ovens so I decided to go ahead with the pita bread in the indoor oven.


The sticky dough, ready to rise.  The risen dough which was then refrigerated.  About a grapefruit size of the dough.  I cut it into four but found without a pizza peel it was awkward getting the rolled out pita bread onto the stone in the oven so I cut the remaining six quarters into eights.  I rolled the dough about 1/8th of an inch, brushed with water and sprinkled with seeds.  The stone had been heating in a 240C oven for about 30 minutes.   I cooked them for 7 minutes.


I decided as I had some lamb mince I would make rissoles with ground coriander, cummin, garlic, onion and coriander to go with the pita bread.  I am not a gravy lover and was happy to just use some sweet chilli sauce.
