About Fatir
Mike Benayoun presents fatir as the flaky flatbread used in Tajik qurutob. This profile follows his separately supplied bread component: flour, water and salt form the dough, with softened butter between its layers.
Butter provides the bread’s principal richness, supported by a small salt seasoning. The selected component has no onion filling or seed topping; those features from other fatir versions are not added here.
The layered dough forms a round, patterned bread with a golden surface. Its spiral construction distinguishes this particular rendition, while the yogurt, vegetables and oil of the assembled qurutob belong to a separate dish.
