ISO - Sandwich Rolls that can be cooked on a Flat Top.

[martinibrothers]

Hey all, I always see people on T.V. making bread dough and rolling it out into sandwich size pieces and frying them on a flat top or a saute pan. Its not like fried dough because when it cools they slice it and use it for paninis, pork sandwiches, etc. Anyone have a good recipe for something like that? thanks!

I've never seen that, although I'd be interested also. Someone here will know.

Tons of different cultures have what you're referring to - more or less what I'd call a flatbread. This is a very cool site that lists the various kinds of flatbreads & their origins with a brief description and then links to recipes for each!

If you find one that you particularly want to try, let us know. There's bound to be someone who's made them around here who can offer some advice and helpful hints.

I would make a pizza dough, let it rise once and then fry it on the flat top. That's what it looks like they did to me. I would check my TripleD cookbooks but they were losing contestants when I thinned the cookbook section in the house.

The Panozzo's website menu just says it's a house made flatbread.

It's not that I didn't like them, but in order to feed my cookbook addiction I have to thin them out as I have limited space to store them. I've taken to getting free ones for my kindle just cuz I can and they don't fill up my bookcase.
