I wish to use a recipe for making crispy flat bread but I am not sure
of the definition of flat bread. Is this the term for Persian flat
bread sheets that are often used as sandwich wraps? I can buy them in
my supermarket in packs of about 6 large (say 10 x 10 inch) sheets.

The recipe is in a Donna Hay (Australian) cookbook.

Thanks.

Post the recipe. The phrase "Flat Bread" covers a HUGE mulitude of
options.

ITA - the only flatbread I was familiar with growing up was the
Scandinavian variety which is like a very, very thin rye-type cracker

had been as old as the bird, and if the bird's breasts had
been as full as the waitress', it would have been a very
good dinner." Duncan Hines

Here's the recipe: Crispy flat bread

3 pieces flat bread
olive oil for brushing
half tsp ground cumin
sea salt

cut each piece of bread into nine squares, brush with the oil and
sprinkle with the cumin and salt. place squares on a baking tray and
bake for 6 minutes or until golden and crispy.

I am trying to achieve the crispy squares to dunk into dips or eat
alone.
Cheers

Ahhhh, I thought you were trying to make it from scratch. I think pita
(pocket) bread would be fine. The "greek" style, which is softer,
thicker, and has no pocket would not get crispy in that time. The kind
I'd use, at least here in the US, is round and has an irregular surface,
and if you split it along the edge, it will reveal a pocket, like
opening a ziplock bag, and can be loaded with falafel or other things. I
cut these with a pizza cutter in pie wedges and heat.

Oh, and to make this topping EVEN BETTER, I'd dry toast the cumin in a
dry iron skillet until toasted, and crush (easy to do when toasted).
This is a sublime taste.
