Mix salt with flour to create a starter.

Add warm water to the flour mixture and mix until a wet dough forms.

Let the dough rest for 3-4 hours with a lid on top.

Shape the dough into balls, ensuring they have enough flour to prevent sticking.

Roll the dough balls into thin sheets.

Sprinkle water on the sheets to help them stick to the baking surface.

Lay the rolled dough on a pillow and bake it on the walls of a traditional oven.
