How to Make Pide Turkish Flat Cake

  1. Sift 500g of all-purpose flour into a large bowl.
  2. In a separate bowl, activate 7g of active dry yeast in 250ml of warm water. Let stand for 5 minutes until foamy.
  3. Add the yeast mixture to the flour. Add 10g of salt and knead for 8-10 minutes until a smooth, elastic dough forms. Add more flour, 1 tablespoon at a time, if the dough is too sticky.
  4. Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, cover with a damp cloth, and let rise in a warm place for 30 minutes, or until doubled in size.
  5. Divide the dough into two equal portions. Shape each portion into a round cake, approximately 20cm in diameter.
  6. Brush each cake generously with 2 tablespoons of olive oil and sprinkle evenly with 1 tablespoon of sesame seeds.
  7. Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Bake the pide for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through.
