Separate from dough smaller portions and make into balls. Using a flat surface lined with flour, begin to roll out each ball into a flat piece of dough.
Place flattened dough on griddle and bake until tender. On a heated griddle, cooking only takes a few seconds. Flip-over and cook the other side for only a few seconds.
Remove from griddle and allow to cool. Fold and store.
