  • Place the yeast, sugar, and a little water in a bowl; let it rest for 5 minutes.
  • Form a mound with the flour on a surface, add the mixture with the yeast, salt, oil, and the remaining water. Knead by hand until a compact dough forms.
  • Roll out the dough on a well-floured surface and work it until it is thin and elastic to the touch.
  • Place the dough in a bowl, cover it with a kitchen towel, and let it rest until it doubles in size. Press the dough with your fist to release the air.
  • Divide the dough into 12 equal portions, let the rolls rest for a moment, then roll each one out and use a rolling pin to form circles 5 mm thick.
  • Place on greased baking trays with a little oil and take them to an oven at 250°C for ten minutes.
  • Once the breads are baked, immediately place them between two kitchen towels to retain moisture and prevent them from hardening.
