- Add olive oil and pour in water gradually, mixing until a shaggy dough forms.
- Turn the dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead gently for 2–3 minutes until smooth.
- Divide the dough into 6–8 pieces, shape into balls, cover with a towel, and let rest for 5 minutes.
- Roll each ball into a thin round, between 1/8 and 1/4 inch thick.
