I found the following recipe in the Frugal Gourmet book, Our
Immigrant Ancestors, by Jeff Smith. The intro has been deleted and the
directions paraphrased.

1/2 cup homemade or store bought yogurt
1/2 cup milk
1/2 tsp baking soda
1 tsp sugar
4 tbs butter, melted and cooled
2 eggs, lightly beaten
2 pkgs quick rising yeast

1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp poppy seeds or sesame seeds

	warm yogurt and stir in milk. cool. add baking soda, sugar, 2 tbs
of the butter, eggs and yeast. Mix by hand until yeast dissolves.
	stir in flour and salt. knead dough for 15 to 20 minutes until
smooth and elastic. cover and allow to rise 2x in size.
	dust hands with flour and knead again for a few minutes. divide
into 8 balls, roll each ball into 10 inch pancake. Pull circles to get
oval shape. cover with plastic wrap, do not stack. let rest 20 minutes.
	heat clay tiles and oven to 450 deg F. 
	mix remaining butter with seeds. flour a bread paddle and put
dough on paddle. top with seed/butter mixture and slide onto oven tiles.

Ingredients:
------------
4 cups       all purpose flour
1 tsp        baking powder
1/2 tsp      baking powder
salt to taste
1            egg, beaten
6 Tblsp      plain yogurt
3 Tblsp      butter or ghee, melted
About 1 Cup  milk
1 Tblsp      poppy seeds

Instructions:
-------------
Sift flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt together in a bowl.

Stir in egg, yogurt and 2 tablespoons of the butter.  Gradually stir in
enough milk to make a soft dough.  Cover with a damp cloth and place in
a warm place for 2 hours. 

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (205 C) (Note: I use even higher temp 500F
and place a pizza stone in my oven)

Knead dough on a floured surface for 2 or 3 minutes until smooth. 

Divide into 8 pieces Roll each piece into a ball then into ovals about 6
inches long. 

If you must use a baking sheet, grease it and brush the underside of the
bread with water.  Brush the other side with butter and sprinkle with
poppy seeds

Bake 6 to 10 minutes until puffy and golden brown.  (This is where the
stone makes a difference)
