Steps

10 to 15 minutes
  1. 1

    In a large bowl, mix all the ingredients together. Gradually add water until you get a smooth dough. Let it rest for 5 minutes.

  2. 2

    Knead the dough well for 20 minutes, adding water occasionally to get a soft, slightly sticky dough. Let the dough rise until it doubles in size.

  3. 3

    Wet your hands and shape the dough into balls. Roll each ball in semolina and place them on kitchen towels sprinkled with semolina.

  4. 4

    Flatten each ball into a round shape about 1/2 to 3/4 inch thick (1.5 to 2 cm). Let them rest for another 10 minutes.
