---

Method

1. Preheat the oven to 180’C

2. Melt the butter and add the garlic

3. Separate each of the Lebanese breads into 2 halves.  This is easiest done by gently pulling them apart at one spot on the margin and then gently tearing along the edge, so you end up with 2 equal flat circles of the bread.

4. Working one piece at a time and using a pastry brush, gently coat the surface that would have been on the inside of the pocket of bread with butter

5. Sprinkle with sesame seeds, if using

6. Stack in a pile until all pieces of bread are coated

7. Slice through the pile, first into 2 halves then continue until you have made 4 cuts across the middle, as if you were slicing a pizza

8. Arrange the crisps in a single layer on a baking tray

9. Put in the oven for 5 minutes or until crisp and golden brown

10. Allow to cool on a wire rack

11. Store in an airtight container
