For a month I do not buy bread, I cook lean Turkish bread, baslam on kefir, relatives joke that you can open your bakery.

Simple cakes on kefir or water are in the kitchen of many countries. They have long been roasted in Russia, loved in the North Caucasus and Central Asia. The Turks call this homemade bread "bazlam", and the Hindus - "chapati". Someone eats it with butter. And someone adds a variety of fillings.



But in any case, the recipe bribes the fact that the ingredients can be counted on the fingers of one hand. There are no expensive products, unprecedented seasonings. Just the simple foods we’re used to seeing in our kitchen.

Simple cakes on kefir Ingredients

• 250ml kefir
• 1 tsp salt (no slide)
• 1 tsp soda
• 1 tsp sugar

Preparation

1. Ask for flour with salt, sugar and soda.

4. Put the dough in the fridge for 10 minutes to rest.
   
   
   
5. Roll the dough into a small sausage and divide it into 5 parts.
