Dough

Simple in conception and preparation, tiganites, as well as similar creations such as loukoumades and crepes, are nothing more than neutral-tasting doughs made with flour and water. On this base we can make countless creations, adding just a few more ingredients sometimes for volume and other times for aroma, flavor or sweetness. 

Preheat the oven to 180°C. Sift the flour and mix all the dough ingredients, then knead well until the mixture is homogenized and forms a soft dough.

Let the dough rest for half an hour. Place it in a shallow pan that has been greased with olive oil. Spread the dough with your fingers until it covers the entire surface of the pan.
