Ingredients

  • 2 cups All Purpose Flour
  • 1 tsp Salt
  • 2 tsp Vinegar
  • 2 tbsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
  • ¾ cup Warm water
  • 1 cup Cornstarch

Instructions

  • Take flour, salt, oil, vinegar in a bowl. Mix well. pour in warm water and knead it to a firm dough. Cover the dough with plastic wrap and let it rest for 30 mins to 1 hour.
  • Divide it into 30 equal balls. dust with some cornstarch and set aside covered.
  • Take five balls and roll it gently. I rolled it till it is in the size of my palm. Once the five balls are rolled. Dust it with cornstarch generously and stack over each other.
  • Roll it gently without giving much pressure. Once it is rolled a bit, i like to peel each layer carefully and gently dust some more cornstarch over the sheets. Stack them again and roll even more till thin.
  • Once the sheets are rolled almost the size of the pan which you are going to bake. Gently peel each layers separately.
  • Place it in a plate which is dusted heavily with cornstarch. Cover the sheets with damp cloth and set aside. Repeat this for the remaining dough.
  • Now use this for making baklava or spring rolls or anything.
