Guest guest Posted March 23, 2007 Report Share Posted March 23, 2007 4 Elements Flat Bread Here is a very simple and surprisingly delicious recipe for a flat bread that incorporates all four elements. It is very much like Indian chapatis. You will need: 2 cups regular flour 1/2 c. warm water + a tablespoon or more as needed 1 teaspoon salt a small amount of olive or vegetable oil griddle or fry pan In a large bowl or on your counter top, dump your flour (the flour is Earth) Make a well in the center of it. Dissolve the salt in the water ( the water, of course is Water), and pour the water in the well. Mix together with your hands until it begins to form a dough. If it is dry, add more water, a tablespoon at a time. Knead the dough for about 10-15 minutes or until it is very supple and smooth. Set the dough aside to rest in a clean covered bowl for 20-30 minutes. Form the dough into a ball and cut into 8 equal pieces. Roll each piece into a ball, then flatten each ball and roll out as thinly as possible form a very, very thin pancake. Heat your pan or griddle to medium high heat. (This is Fire, of course) Cook each thin pancake on the hot griddle. You will know when to turn it over because it will puff up in small or sometimes large bubble pockets. (This is Air) This means about 1 or 2 minutes per side. These are very good with just about anything. Sometimes we like to make sandwich roll-ups out of them.
