Ingredients
  

  • 2 cup of all purpose white flour
  • 2 tablespoon of extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 cup of milk
  • 1 tablespoon of brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon of yeast
  • 1 teaspoon of sesame seeds

Making the Dough

  • Mix yeast, sugar, and milk in a large cup. Set aside

  • Continue Kneading the dough using your hand until it becomes elastic and fluffy.
  • Cover with towel or plate and leave it for 1 hour to 1 ½ hour to help the dough grow in size.

Making and Topping the Turkish Pizza

  • Remove the dough from the bowl. Divide them into 4 pieces using the knife in a shape of a ball
  • Use the rolling pin to make it into an oval-shaped dough, not pizza-like circle dough
  • Fold on each side of the dough and squeeze at each end of the side to have a boat-shaped dough
  • Topped it with Mozzarella and Cheddar cheese
  • Brush the surrounding side of the dough with egg wash using the pastry brush and garnished it with sesame seed.

Baking in the Oven

  • Preheat the oven in 200 C or 390 F
  • Transfer the pide into the oven
  • Let it baked for 12 to 15 minutes or until the crust is golden color.

Notes

If the dough is too sticky, add more flour. But, if the dough is too dry, add more water
