Method

Step 1 of 3

Line two baking trays with baking paper. Combine flour, semolina, sugar and yeast with 1 tsp sea salt flakes in a bowl. Add 3/4 cup hot water. Stir to combine. Turn mixture onto a lightly floured surface. Knead for 10 minutes or until smooth. Divide into 8 portions. Roll each portion into a ball and place on a tray. Cover loosely with plastic wrap and set aside in a warm place for 30 minutes.

Step 2 of 3

Divide butter into 8 portions. Roll 1 portion of dough out on a lightly floured surface into a 20cm square. Dot with 1 portion of butter. Fold one of the sides a third over the dough. Fold other side over, forming a rectangle. Fold the short side a third over dough, then fold other short side over, forming a square. Transfer to tray. Repeat with remaining dough and butter.

Step 3 of 3

Heat oil in a non-stick frying pan over medium heat. Cook, in batches, for 3 minutes each side or until golden and crisp. Transfer to a plate. Keep warm. Serve drizzled with honey and topped with pistachio and watermelon.
