Wash hands thoroughly. Place flour in a bowl and push down with fist to create a "bowl" in center. 


Add salt and water slowly as you steadily knead the dough into a smooth consistency.


Place 1/4 cup of olive oil in a second bowl and use it to cover the plams of your hands. 


Grab chunks of the dough and roll the dough in your oiled hands to form round balls about 2 1/2 inches in diameter (small fruit size).


Let dough sit for 30 minutes. (You can cover with a damp towel to retain moisture.) 


Take one ball of dough and place on a kneading board or marble top and flatten widely (up to six inches in diameter). 


Then fold in each side to create a square. 


The preferred size is about 4 inches wide. Brown each patty in a buttered pan.


Serve with honey, syrup, sugar as a side snack with breakfast or tea.


Option: Stuff before folding with a preferred mixture of ground lamb, almonds, sugar, onions, parsley, and spices.
