Pita Bread<\/h5>\n

Mix the sugar, yeast, olive oil, water and milk, wait for 5 min and see if yeast is alive.<\/p>\n

Prepare flour, salt and chopped fresh thyme in another bowl.<\/p>\n

Pour in yeast mixture in batches, mixing completely before the next.<\/p>\n

Once shaggy, knead on a well-floured surface until the window pane test is passed.<\/p>\n

Oil a bowl, cover, and proof for about 40 minutes, until it rises and doubles in size.<\/p>\n

Preheat and oil a pan on medium heat.<\/p>\n

Press on the dough to remove the air and divide into 6 pieces.<\/p>\n

Use a rolling pin to roll out each piece of dough to a circle 20 cm in diameter.<\/p>\n

Cook for until they puff up slightly, and there is nice browning on each side.<\/p>\n

Garnish with more thyme.<\/p>\n

For tzatziki sauce, grate cucumbers, squeeze lemon, chop dill, and extract garlic and combine all ingredients.<\/p>\n
