Malawach. - Yemenite Jewish Flat Bread
Flatbread that resembles a pancake and pulls apart like a croissant; irresistible, buttery, flaky flatbread. Commonly eaten for breakfast, served with a drizzle of honey or with hard boiled eggs, grated tomato**, and zhug (a Yemeni spicy herb sauce)* The dough is time consuming to prep, but make this recipe or double it, and store them in the freezer-- the pancakes can go straight from the freezer to the grill pan and be ready within 3 minutes.

The general framework for this recipes includes fresh parsley and cilantro, pulsed with spices, and hot peppers. Experiment with your favorite pepper (Thai chiles, even) and add more depending on the heat you can handle. Make a batch now and use it throughout the week.
