Step 1
In a large bowl, mix 2 cups flour and 1 tsp salt. Gradually add 3/4 cup water and 1 tbsp olive oil, stirring until a shaggy dough forms.
Step 2
Knead the dough on a floured surface for 5 minutes until smooth and elastic. Cover with a damp cloth and let rest for 10 minutes.
Step 3
Divide the dough into 4 equal pieces. Roll each piece into a thin circle, about 1/4-inch thick.
Step 4
Heat a dry skillet over medium-high heat. Cook each flatbread for 2-3 minutes per side, until puffed and golden with brown spots.
Step 5
Brush the hot flatbreads with the remaining 1 tbsp olive oil and serve warm.
