Add 1 cup of water to a bowl.

Add 1 teaspoon of salt, 1 tablespoon of sugar, and 1 tablespoon of dry yeast to the water.

Add 2 tablespoons of oil and mix well, then let it rest for 10 minutes.

In a separate bowl, add 2 cups of flour.

Combine the yeast mixture with the flour and mix until a soft dough forms, adding more water if necessary.

Knead the dough until it is nice and soft.

Cover the dough and let it rest for 1 hour until it has risen.

After 1 hour, cut the dough into small pieces for pita bread.

Roll out each piece into a medium-sized circle, keeping it a little thick.

Cover the rolled dough to prevent drying out.

Heat a non-stick pan over high heat.

Cook the rolled dough in the pan, turning it a few times until it swells and is cooked through.
