- Pour a large amount of oil into a skillet and heat.
- On a lightly oiled work surface, flatten each ball and, using both hands, stretch it until it is round, thin and flat (about ¼ inch / 5 mm thick).
- You can also use a rolling pin to flatten them.
- Fry each bread a few minutes on each side until golden brown.
