Baking powder simplifies the leavening process.

Combine 300g flour, 200g semolina, and a pinch of salt in a large bowl.

Add 250ml of milk to the flour mixture and mix until combined.

Knead the dough until smooth and elastic, about 10 minutes.

Cover the dough and let it rest for a while.

Divide the dough into equal portions and shape them into balls.

Flatten each ball with a rolling pin.

Brush each flattened dough with vegetable oil.

Fold the edges of the flattened dough towards the center to form a square.

Heat a skillet over medium heat and add a little vegetable oil.

Cook each folded dough until golden brown on both sides, about 3-4 minutes per side.
