Foodnote: Recipe from here. Since my old oven is already acting up (the heat goes up so high suddenly) and I still want to bake bread... I ended up making flat bread. Just nice since my friend is going to make hummus so it will compliment with the Turkish flat bread. I tried making just to see the portion and it turns out nice and soft. I ate with curry mince beef loaded with lots of carrots and potatoes. Yummeh...
