List of ingredients for Turkish nut bread


* 50g Tahini
* 80g Peanut butter
* 1 tablespoon freshly Ground cumin
* 1 teaspoon fine Salt
* 2 long Red chillies – fairly mild, charred over a flame
* 500g Strong white flour
* 1.5 teaspoon instant dry Yeast
* 15ml Vegetable or Olive oil for kneading
* 5g Sesame seeds (not optional)

===Method===
* Spoon the Tahini, Peanut butter, Cumin and Salt into a large mixing bowl, and add 100ml of nearly Boiling water. Stir well
* Deseed the Chillies, chop finely (leaving the charred bits on) and add to the Nut mixture. Stir well and then add 200ml of cold water. Add the Yeast, then mix in the Flour, to create a soft, slightly sticky Dough. Give the dough a 10 second Knead on an oiled worktop and then return to the bowl. Leave for an hour
* Divide the Dough into three. Shape into balls and roll into oval shaped sticks, about 30cm in length, using Flour to keep it moving if needs be. Brush with water and roll in Sesame seeds so both sides are covered. Place on a silicon sheet lined back tray, and leave to rise for 90 minutes, or until it's about 75% bigger
* Heat Oven to 220C (200 for a fan assisted oven). Slash Bread along each side with a very sharp knife and Bake for approximately 30 minutes. The test for whether it's cooked or not is to take it out and knock the underside with your knuckles, if it makes no real noise it's not done and should go back in immediately, if it makes a hollow knocking noise, it's done.
