Simit is a ring-shaped unleavened bread, which is a popular street food in Turkey. The recipe comes from "The Country Kitchen" by Jocasta Innes, but I use butter instead of the recommended margarine, and sometimes substitute poppy seeds for the recommended sesame seeds.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400F (200C).
- In a bowl, mix the flour and salt together, and make a well in the middle.
- Melt the margarine/butter, then mix with the oil, milk, water and egg.
- Pour the egg mixture into the well in the flour, and mix well to form a dough.
- Shape the dough into rings about 4" in diameter.
- Grease baking sheet, and lay the rings on it.
- Brush the rings with milk and sprinkle with sesame seeds.
- Bake in the preheated oven for about 30 minutes, or until golden brown.
- I think these are best eaten hot or while still warm.
