Crumble ½ cube of yeast into a tall vessel.

Add 1 tablespoon of sugar and stir until dissolved.

Add 300 grams of flour into a mixing bowl.

Pour in the yeast-water mixture.

Add 1 teaspoon of salt and a good dash of olive oil.

Knead using hands or a food processor for about 4-5 minutes until smooth.

If the dough seems too dry, add another dash of olive oil and continue kneading.

Form a ball of dough and rub it with olive oil.

Cover with a kitchen towel and let rest for about 30-45 minutes until doubled in volume.

Place the dough onto the countertop without flour.

Cut the dough into 4 equal pieces and form balls.

Roll out each ball with a rolling pin to about 15-20 centimeters wide.

Lay them on a lined baking tray with some distance between each.

Bake in a preheated oven at 200°C for about 10-15 minutes until golden brown.
