Steps 4-5

– Cover the dough and let it rest for about 4 hours or even overnight. The longer it rests, the easier it is for us to roll as we have to roll the dough really thin. – Once the dough is rested, divide the dough into 10 equal pieces.

Steps 6-9

– Let the dough balls rest for about 15 minutes. – Dusting each ball with enough flour, start rolling the dough. Roll it as thin as possible without tearing the dough. – If the dough resists rolling, rest it for few more minutes and then roll again. – Heat a heavy pan and cook the rolled Yufka on medium high heat until golden brown on both sides.
