  Amount  Measure       Ingredient -- Preparation Method
--------  ------------  --------------------------------
   2      cups          all-purpose flour
     1/4  cup           plain yogurt
   1                    egg -- slightly beaten
   1 1/2  teaspoons     baking powder
   1      teaspoon      sugar
     1/4  teaspoon      salt
     1/8  teaspoon      baking soda
     1/2  cup           milk
                        ghee or vegetable oil
                        poppy seeds

Mix all ingredients except milk, ghee and poppy seeds.  Stir in enough milk
to make a soft dough.  Turn dough onto lightly floured surface; knead until
smooth, about 5 minutes.  Place in greased bowl; turn greased side up.
 Cover; let rest in warm place about 3 hours.

Divide dough in 8 equal parts.  Flatten each part on lightly floured surface,
rolling it into a 6 X 4" leaf shape (round at one end, tapered at the other)
about 1/4" thick.  Brush with ghee or oil; sprinkle with poppy seeds.

Place 2 cookie sheets in oven; heat oven to 450F degrees.  Remove cookie
sheets from oven; place breads on hot cookie sheets.  Bake until firm, 6-8
minutes.
