Bat Boot

Bat Boot ! who me or the bread
 

Kneed Kneed Kneed Kneed Kneed and a bit more Kneeding
is the secret to a good Moroccan dough
 
 
 The terracotta dish is so good to work in as it contains all the ingredients as well as they do use a lot of oil.
Being so large and heavey is also very handy. Looks like a shopping trip to the Arabic 1/4 of Sydney or Melbourne when we get home as I don't want to lug one of these suckers around for the next few months
All by hand, no rolling pins
 

Let them rest on a nice Arabic scarf for 45mins or so.

 
They are cooked on a hot plate, turning often, waiting for them to puff as the steam cooks in inside. After more turning gradually flatten down and continue cooking till they look opayick (thanks spell check ... noooot) and not raw in colour.
 
 
 Serve with a platter of amazing things we have cooked and created over the last few days, the Bat Boots because of the ballooning and internal steaming easy make for a pocket to fill or just easy to separate. 
 
 
Goes super well with a little drop from 300km up the road!
