Lahooh bread - Breads Between Us

Lahooh is a traditional bread originating from Yemen, similar to a spongy, thin pancake. While it is particularly popular in Yemen and Somalia, there is no significant evidence of its presence in the traditional cuisine of Saudi Arabia. In these regions, Lahooh is made from a batter consisting of flour (often sorghum flour), warm water, yeast, and a pinch of salt. The batter is poured onto a hot surface, such as a skillet or metal griddle, and cooked until it forms a soft and porous texture. This bread is commonly served with stews, soups, or curry, or enjoyed with clarified butter, honey, or sugar, often accompanied by tea.
