Steps

  1. 1

    Combine all the dry ingredients and mix well. Gradually add warm water and knead until a dough forms. Divide the dough into balls, coat with oil, cover with plastic wrap, and let rest for at least 30 minutes.

    Heat a grill pan and toast the wraps until they have nice grill marks, like in restaurants. I like to serve it with tahini sauce.
