Laffa is a soft, pillowy flatbread originating from Middle Eastern cuisine, widely enjoyed as a wrap or accompaniment to various dishes. Traditionally made from a simple mixture of flour, water, yeast, and salt, it is cooked on a hot skillet or in a traditional taboon oven, creating a lightly charred and flavorful exterior. Laffa is versatile and often used to wrap vibrant fillings such as grilled meats, fresh vegetables, and spreads like hummus or tahini. While it provides energy from carbohydrates, its healthiness depends on portion size and accompanying ingredients. Whole-grain versions can offer added fiber and nutrients, making it a more wholesome option compared to refined flour versions. While generally low in fat, richness can increase depending on preparation methods or toppings like oil or sauces. Laffa provides a satisfying base for hearty meals and is a staple in numerous Mediterranean and Middle Eastern diets.
