Yemeni Lahoh with Honey
Lahoh is a spongy, pancake-like bread with a unique, slightly tangy flavor, often served with honey for a sweet and savory breakfast or snack. Its characteristic holes are a result of the fermentation and cooking process.
🧂 Ingredienti
- 2 cups All-purpose flour
- 2.5 cups Warm water
- 1 tsp Active dry yeast
- 1 tsp Salt
- as needed for serving Honey
- as needed for cooking Ghee or butter
👨🍳 Istruzioni

In a large bowl, dissolve yeast in warm water and let it sit for 5-10 minutes until foamy.
💡 Consigli Professionali: Ensure water is warm, not hot, to activate yeast. - 2
Add flour and salt to the yeast mixture. Whisk until smooth and a thin batter forms, similar to crepe batter.
💡 Consigli Professionali: A blender can be used for a smoother batter. - 3
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let the batter ferment in a warm place for 2-3 hours, or until doubled in size and bubbly.
⏱️ 2-3 hours💡 Consigli Professionali: The longer fermentation develops the characteristic tangy flavor. - 4
Heat a lightly greased non-stick skillet or a traditional lahoh pan over medium heat. The pan should be hot but not smoking.
💡 Consigli Professionali: A well-seasoned cast iron skillet can also work. - 5
Pour about 1/2 cup of batter into the hot pan, swirling it gently to create a thin, even layer. The batter will spread and create holes.

Cook for 2-3 minutes until the edges lift and the surface appears dry and lacy.

Carefully flip the lahoh and cook for another 1-2 minutes until lightly golden.

Remove from pan and serve immediately, drizzled generously with honey. Repeat with remaining batter.
💡 Consigli Professionali: Serve warm for the best texture and flavor.
