Feteer Meshaltet Al Falahi Method
Ingredients for Feteer Al Falahi Meshaltet:
- 4 cups of flour “must be bread flour
- 2 tablespoons of sugar
- A quarter of a teaspoon of salt
- Water for kneading
slack mix
- Acup of local or animal butter at room temperature, or melted municipal ghee.
- A quarter cup of oil helps to spread the dough.
- One tablespoon of baking powder, an amount of municipal or canned cream.
The method of work
1) – I will start with four cups of flour, then add two tablespoons of sugar, and a quarter tablespoon of salt, then add water, gradually, until we have a cohesive dough.
So we start with 1 and 1/3 cups and you can use more, if you feel the dough needs it, once the dough separates from the sides of the bowl, then the dough is soft, a little sticky.
2- Put the dough on a plate, and put a little ghee or butter on the face. Cover it with plastic wrap and leave it for at least two hours, the longer, the better.
3) – I will divide the dough into balls, in the form of small balls, taking into account that they are of different sizes. We roll out the dough one by one, and use melted ghee on the work surface and on the ball.
4) – We press our hands on the ball and stretch it. If the dough is well rested, it will stretch easily. The first layer without anything in it just remember to use ghee on the go, and don’t worry if it breaks a bit.
All edges are tightened, until the dough becomes transparent, and if the edges are too thick, just cut it.
5) – We distribute a quantity of the softening mixture on it, “the butter, baking powder, and oil, then we fold it over each other, set it aside, and roll out the second ball.
6) – Then put the first folded layer into the second layer before you fold it, with a little flaking mixture, then fold it again, you can add as many layers as you like but for me five layers or five balls would be fine.
7) – Put the unleavened bread on your baking sheet, cover it with plastic wrap and then let it rest, for fifteen to thirty minutes. Then use a little cream on top of the pie ball, and distribute it with your hands, while spreading the dough ball.
8) – Bake at a high temperature for 15 minutes, or until it turns brown or golden, cover it with aluminum foil after removing it from the oven, until it becomes soft.
You can enjoy it after 15 minutes. We eat it with cottage cheese, honey, or treacle and tahini, or you can enjoy it with nothing at all.
note:
You can also make the pastry in another way, instead of spreading it in the form of a ball and placing one inside the other.
It can be cut in the form of a large ball, and rolled into a very thin rectangle, and it is cut from the sides, and put each side on the other. Then in the end we roll it in the form of a ball, and we spread it in a tray, then we flatten it.
