Ingredients

  • 1 cup Whole wheat flour
  • 1 cup All Purpose flour
  • 1/2 Tablespoon honey
  • 1/2 Tablespoon instant yeast
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/8 Cup olive oil
  • 3/4 of a cup warm water

Instructions

  • Mix together the flours, yeast, honey and salt in the bowl. Add water slowly and start kneading to make a dough.add oil at the end and knead to get a smooth dough. Transfer the dough on to your kitchen surface/kneading area, and knead for another 5 minutes to get a smooth dough.
  • Let the dough rest in a well oiled bowl for an hour or until doubled. Once doubled, flip the dough on to a well floured surface , punch it down and divide it into 4-5 equal pieces. Let it rest again, covered with a kitchen towel for another hour for it to double.
  • Take a Chinese wok, flip it upside down over the gas stove and heat it in a high flame.
  • Flour your rolling surface well, take a ball of dough and roll it out into a thin circle.
  • Pick up the rolled out dough and place it over the hot wok and bake it on one side only. It will take around 2-3 minutes for the bread to cook.
  • Repeat until all the shrak is cooked.
  • Keep the cooked shrak wrapped in a dish towel to keep warm until serving.
  • Enjoy!
