Weight Loss Recipes - Rosemary and Parmesan
Lavasch
Rosemary and
Parmesan Lavasch (makes
16 servings)
Ingredients:
1
pkg. active dry yeast
2
cups warm water
1
teaspoon sugar
2
1/2 tablespoons vegetable oil
3 1/4 cup
unbleached flour
1
teaspoon salt
3
tablespoons fresh rosemary
3 tablespoons
fresh grated Parmesan cheese*
Directions:
1.
In
a small bowl, add water and sugar until dissolved then sprinkle yeast on top.
Let stand for 10 minutes to activate yeast then add oil.
2.
In
a food processor, add flour and salt and mix well. Slowly add yeast mixture and
continue mixing until dough forms a ball while scraping sides with a spatula.
If you don't have a food processor, use a wooden spoon to mix by hand and add
yeast mixture a little at a time to evenly combine. Add more flour as needed if
dough is too sticky or water if too dry.
3.
Turn
dough out on a floured work surface and knead dough by hand until it is smooth.
Wrap tightly in plastic wrap and allow to rest in the refrigerator until it rises
to nearly double its size (about 1 hour.)
4.
Preheat
oven to 400 degrees.
5.
In
a small bowl, combine rosemary and Parmesan cheese.
6.
Turn
dough out on a floured work surface and roll out until it is the shape of a rectangle.
Cut dough into roughly 16 equal portions. When working with one portion of dough,
place the others in a bowl covered with plastic wrap to prevent from drying out.
Take a portion of dough and roll until paper thin (should resemble a very flat
rectangle or strip). Using a spatula, lift the dough strip and place it on an
ungreased baking sheet. Repeat with remaining dough pieces.
7.
Evenly
sprinkle with rosemary and Parmesan cheese over the tops of the dough strips and
lightly press into the dough.
8.
Bake
until golden brown (about 10-15 minutes) then cool on wire racks.
