Taba Nan is a big round leavened flatbread. They have a raised edge and are decorated on the central dough. Traditionally they where cooked in a dung fire.

The dough is very wet. I let it rise for 2 hours but you could leave it for up to 8 or 9. I intend to experiment with a long fermentation version sometime in the future.
