Ingredients

  • 3 cups flour
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 1/2 cups water
  • 1/3 cup oil

Instructions

  • Sift flour and mix in salt, with one hand add water slowly with the other mix, until you get a sticky dough consistency. Pour a small amount of oil on top of the dough cover and let stand 15 minutes.
  • On a baking sheet pour 1/3 cup oil, form small balls slightly bigger than a golf ball, and place on the oil. Continue untill all of the dough is formed into balls, cover and let rest 15 minuntes.
  • Heat a large skillet on med-high heat. on the counter top, flatten out the balls one at a time, using a circular motion and stretching with your fingers. Be careful about the amount of oil you use- too little and it will stick too much, and it wont get thin enough. 
  • Dip the ball in the oil from the tray before flattening, you want to get it very very thin. (It should strech to larger than your hand). 
  • With two hands transfer to the pan, immediately start stretching another, flip what is in the pan with a fork, and place the next one on top of the first. Strech another ball, flip both Mufleta in the pan and add the new one. 
  • Continue this pattern untill all of the balls are stretched and you have a huge pile of Mufletot on the pan (use 2 forks when it gets too heavy for just 1).
  •  Serve hot from the pan with honey or silan and butter or jelly to slather and then roll. Enjoy!
  • Tip: If doubling the recipe, try to do no more than 15 in a pan at a time in batches.
