- Add a little warm water at a time until the mixture forms a ball.
- Knead the dough for 5 minutes until the dough is smooth and elastic.
- Brush the dough with a little vegetable oil.
- Divide the dough into small balls about the size of a ping pong ball.
- Place the dough onto a place and cover with plastic wrap sprayed with nonstick cooking spray.
- Allow the dough to rest for 15 minutes.
- On a clean counter, brush the counter lightly with vegetable oil.
- Press down on the dough and flatten. Roll out the dough gently to form a very thin disk of dough.

- Take the upper edge and fold it over to the center.
- Take the lower edge and fold it over to the center.

- In a large skillet, heat a little vegetable oil over high heat.
- Reduce the heat over medium high heat.
- Cook the msemmen for a few minutes until golden brown.
- If the dough puffs up while cooking, then flat by pushing down.
