Ingredients per serving
- 1.6 oz Feta cheese
- 0.8 oz mozzarella cheese
- 0.4 cup all-purpose flour
- 0.2 oz Water
- 0.15 tsp Kosher Salt
- 0.075 tbsp Canola Oil
Method
1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour and salt.
2. Gradually add warm water to the flour mixture, stirring until a soft dough forms. Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 5 minutes until smooth and elastic.
3. Divide the dough into 10 equal portions and shape each portion into a ball.
4. On a lightly floured surface, roll out each dough ball into a thin circle, approximately 8 inches in diameter.
5. Place a layer of crumbled feta cheese and shredded mozzarella on half of the rolled-out dough, leaving a small border around the edges.
6. Fold the other half of the dough over the cheese to form a semi-circle. Press the edges together to seal.
7. Heat a large skillet or griddle over medium heat and add 1 tablespoon of oil.
8. Place the malawach in the skillet and cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side, until golden brown and crispy. Repeat with remaining dough balls, adding more oil as needed.
9. Keep the cooked malawach warm in a low oven while cooking the rest.
10. Serve immediately, garnished with additional crumbled feta if desired.
