Mix flour, semolina, yeast, and sugar in a large bowl.

Add warm water gradually while mixing until a dough forms.

Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 10 minutes until smooth.

Let the dough rise in a warm place until doubled in size, about 1 hour.

Preheat the oven to a high temperature (around 475°F or 245°C).

Divide the dough into equal portions and shape each into a round disc.

Place the discs on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

Brush the tops with olive oil and sprinkle with sesame seeds.

Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, about 15-20 minutes.

Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving.
