Ingredients

Before you cook

Steps

  1. Add the warm water to the flour mixture gradually, kneading as you go.
  2. Knead the dough for 8 minutes until smooth and elastic, adding a little more water if it feels dry.
  3. Cover the dough and let it rest for 20 minutes.
  4. Divide the dough into 6 equal balls.
  5. Oil your work surface and hands generously.
  6. Flatten one ball with your oiled fingers, stretching it out into a thin, roughly square sheet.
  7. Fold the two opposite edges of the sheet into the center.
  8. Fold the other two edges into the center to form a smaller square.
  9. Press the folded square down gently to flatten it slightly.
  10. Repeat the stretching and folding with the remaining dough balls.
  11. Heat a dry skillet over medium heat.
  12. Place a folded square in the hot skillet.
  13. Cook for 3 minutes per side, brushing with melted butter, until golden and crisp.
  14. Repeat with the remaining squares.
  15. Serve warm drizzled with honey.
