Malawah image

This is a flaky Yemenite bread that my friend Yechiel taught me to make in Israel. It is delicious with puréed tomatoes and zhoug (a spicy condiment--I posted the recipe separately) or with honey. Well worth the effort! (Cook time is rest time).

Time 1h20m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

3 cups all-purpose flour
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
1 cup water
1 cup butter, melted and clarified
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon sugar
1 teaspoon vinegar (optional)

Steps:

  • Sift the baking powder into the flour, make a well in the center and add water, 1 tablespoon of the butter, salt, sugar and vinegar.
  • Knead to a smooth elastic consistency.
  • Cut into 6 equal portions,and allow to "rest" in a cool place for 20 minutes Flatten each piece to a 6-inch round.
  • Brush each round with the melted butter, then roll it into a tight sausage shape Allow the rolls to rest for 20 minutes.
  • Repeat the flattening,rolling and brushing procedure twice more, waiting 20 minutes between rolling and re-flattening (final results should be flat like pita).
  • Using a non-stick skillet/frying pan, fry the malawah on both sides until golden brown, flipping them over at half time.

I had some trouble getting the malawah to puff up. I'm not sure what I did wrong.

These were a little too oily for my taste. I think I'll try using less oil next time.

I'm Yemeni and I grew up eating malawah. This recipe is spot-on! The malawah were just as good as my grandmother's.

I'm not usually a fan of fried foods, but these malawah were so light and airy that I couldn't resist. They were perfect for a quick and easy breakfast or lunch.

These malawah were absolutely fantastic - crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside. I served them with ful medames and a yogurt sauce, and my family loved them.
