👨‍🍳 Instruktioner

1
Activate the yeast: In a small bowl, combine the lukewarm water, sugar, and yeast. Stir gently and let it sit for 5-10 minutes until it becomes foamy and bubbly. This indicates the yeast is active.
⏱️ 10 minutes
2
Combine dry ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, semolina flour, and salt. Make a well in the center.
⏱️ 2 minutes
3
Form the dough: Pour the activated yeast mixture into the well of the dry ingredients. Begin mixing with a wooden spoon or your hands until a shaggy dough forms. If the dough seems too dry, add a tablespoon of water at a time. If it's too sticky, add a tablespoon of flour.
⏱️ 5 minutes
4
Knead the dough: Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Knead for about 8-10 minutes, or until the dough is smooth, elastic, and no longer sticky. It should spring back slowly when poked.
⏱️ 10 minutes
5
First rise: Lightly grease a clean bowl with oil. Place the kneaded dough in the bowl, turning it once to coat. Cover the bowl tightly with plastic wrap or a damp kitchen towel. Let it rise in a warm place for 1 to 1.5 hours, or until it has doubled in size.
⏱️ 1 hour 30 minutes
6
Shape the batbout: Gently punch down the risen dough to release the air. Turn it out onto a lightly floured surface. Divide the dough into 8 equal portions. Roll each portion into a smooth ball. Flatten each ball into a thick disc, about 1.5 cm (0.6 inches) thick and 15 cm (6 inches) in diameter. Place the shaped discs on a lightly floured baking sheet or clean kitchen towel, ensuring they don't touch.
⏱️ 15 minutes
7
Second rise (optional but recommended): Cover the shaped discs loosely with a kitchen towel and let them rest for another 15-20 minutes. This helps them puff up better during cooking.
⏱️ 20 minutes
8
Cook the batbout: Heat a dry, heavy-bottomed skillet or griddle over medium-high heat. The surface should be hot enough that a drop of water sizzles and evaporates immediately. Carefully place 1-2 batbout discs onto the hot griddle, ensuring not to overcrowd it. Cook for about 3-5 minutes per side. You will see the bread begin to puff up like a balloon. Flip it when golden brown spots appear on the bottom. Cook the other side until golden brown and puffed.
⏱️ 8-10 minutes per batch
9
Cool and serve: As each batbout is cooked, remove it from the griddle and wrap it immediately in a clean kitchen towel. This keeps them soft and pliable. Serve warm.
⏱️ 5 minutes
