Steps

1 1/2 hours

1

In a bowl, mix 1 cup of warm water with 1 tablespoon of yeast and 1 tablespoon of sugar. Stir and let sit for 10 minutes.
2

Add the salt to the flour, then pour in the yeast mixture and additional warm water as needed. Knead well until a smooth dough forms. Cover and let the dough rest and rise for at least 1 hour.
3

Divide the dough into balls about the size of an orange. Cover and let them rest for 30 minutes. One kilogram of flour makes about 12 loaves.
4

Lightly flour your work surface. Using a rolling pin, roll each dough ball into a round, flat shape.
5

Heat a skillet over medium heat. Place the first round of dough in the hot skillet. Use a spoon to gently press and spread the bread so it puffs up, then flip it over.
6

Let the bread cool, then repeat with the remaining dough rounds.
