4. Cover the dough with a clean cloth and let it rest for 20 minutes.
5. Divide the dough into lime-sized balls and roll them into circular shapes using a rolling pin.
6. Cook the bread on a griddle, searing both sides until they are well-cooked.

• When adding water, do so gradually to avoid making the dough too sticky.
