STEP BY STEP

Let's make something delicious.

  1. 01

    Mix the flour and salt. Stir in the oil and 80 ml lukewarm water with a spoon, then knead by hand to form a dough. Leave to rest for 10 minutes, then knead for another 5 minutes until smooth.

  2. 02

    Divide the dough into 10 portions and roll each into a flatbread 15 cm in diameter.

  3. 03

    Heat a cast-iron frying pan without any fat. Cook 1 flatbread at a time until the first brown spots appear. Turn over and brown the other side.
