Mix flour, salt, and sugar in a large bowl.

Dissolve yeast in warm water and add to the flour mixture.

Knead the dough until smooth, about 10 minutes.

Cover the dough and let it rise in a warm place until doubled, about 1 hour.

Divide the dough into equal portions and shape each into a ball.

Roll each ball into a thin circle on a floured surface.

Spread softened butter over the surface of each circle.

Fold the circle multiple times to create layers and shape into a disc.

Heat a skillet over medium heat and cook each disc until golden, about 3-4 minutes per side.

Alternatively, bake in a preheated oven at 375°F until puffed and golden, about 15-20 minutes.

Serve warm with fillings like cheese, meat, or vegetables.
