Ask a Question About This Product
The PYL 90-LAVASH is a 90 cm diameter gas-fired flatbread cooker designed for Turkish yufka, lavash, and wrap production in commercial kitchens. It operates on natural gas at 21.6 kW output through three torus burners with independent safety valves. The unit supports continuous production of thin breads in bakeries, wraps shops, Middle Eastern restaurants, and hotel breakfast stations.
Commercial Application
This cooker handles high-volume flatbread production where speed and consistent surface heat are required. Operators place dough directly onto the heated cooking plate, monitor for bubbling and colouration, then remove finished breads within 60–90 seconds. Three independent burner zones allow partial operation during lower-demand periods.
During lunch or dinner service, cooks prepare fresh wraps, tortillas, or lavash while managing concurrent orders. The 90 cm diameter accommodates two medium breads or one large wrap simultaneously. Adjustable burner-to-plate distance provides control over surface temperature for different dough thicknesses.
Key Operational Advantages
- 90 cm cooking diameter handles two flatbreads per cycle

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Is the cooking surface steel or chrome-plated?
A: The PYL 90-LAVASH uses a steel cooking plate. Chrome plating is not applied on traditional Turkish flatbread cookers because direct steel-to-dough contact is preferred for authentic texture and browning. The plate requires seasoning before first use.
Q: Can this unit operate on LPG instead of natural gas?
A: The standard PYL 90-LAVASH is configured for natural gas at 22 mbar. LPG conversion requires replacement burner jets and pressure regulator adjustment. Contact TurcoBazaar before ordering if LPG operation is required so the unit can be converted at the factory.
Q: How is grease or flour residue removed from the cooking surface?
A: After each service, operators scrape the cooled plate with a metal spatula and wipe with a damp cloth. This unit does not include a grease channel because flatbread cooking produces minimal oil runoff. Daily cleaning involves removing flour buildup from burner surrounds.
Q: Is this cooker suitable for installation in a food truck?
A: The 30 kg weight and 90 cm diameter fit most food truck layouts. Gas connection requires a regulated natural gas or LPG supply with appropriate ventilation and extraction. Secure mounting to the truck floor is necessary to prevent movement during transit.
Q: Can I control different temperature zones across the cooking surface?
A: The three burners operate independently via separate valves. Adjusting individual burner output creates warmer and cooler zones across the plate. The burner-to-plate distance can also be changed to raise or lower overall surface temperature for different dough types.
