Lovely lavosh afternoon.....

We had a lovely afternoon making sesame and fennel lavosh crackers and then served them with cheese and the fig and fennel roll with a glass of sparkly.  What better thing to do on a Wednesday winter afternoon!

The dough freezes well too.

Lavosh Crackers

• 1 cup wholemeal flour
• 1/3 cup plain flour
• 2 tablespoons each of white and black sesame seeds (or cumin, fennel - whatever you like)
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
• 1 teaspoon sesame oil
• 1/2 cup water

Place the flour, seeds and salt and combine.

Add the oils and the water and mix until it forms a ball.  Kneed lightly.

Wrap in plastic and place in the fridge for about half an hour.

Heat the oven to 160 degrees celcius.

Roll the mixture onto a flour surface until quite thin.

Place on a tray line with baking paper and cut into small squares with a pizza cutter.

Bake for about 12 minutes - turn the biscuits over in the middle of cooking.

Keep a good eye on them as they cook really quickly being so thin.
