Ingredients

  • 4 cups flour
  • 1 1/4 cups water
  • 1/2 tsp. salt
  • 1 stick margarine
  • tomato sauce (optional)

Directions

1

Mix flour, water, and salt until dough becomes soft. Add more flour if dough is sticky. Cut dough into two sections. Knead and roll each section into a 20 x 20 inch sheet. Spread margarine on the sheets. Fold each sheet like an envelope with ends meeting at center. Repeat folding process to get two layers of folds.

3

Form each piece of dough to the shape of your frying pan and fry until golden brown on both sides. Serve with tomato sauce or sour cream.
