6 steps
  1. 01

    Mix the all-purpose flour, salt, and water until you have a smooth, pourable batter with no lumps.

  2. 02

    Let the batter rest briefly so it relaxes and spreads more easily.

  3. 03

    Heat a flat pan or griddle to about 220°C (425°F) and lightly brush it with the vegetable oil.

  4. 04

    Pour on a small amount of batter and spread it quickly into a very thin round.

  5. 05

    Cook until the surface looks dry and the underside has pale golden spots, then turn it for a few seconds on the other side.

  6. 06

    Transfer the bread to a plate and repeat with the remaining batter, stacking the breads so they stay flexible.
