Step 1
Mix the flour with salt. Add water and knead soft, elastic dough.
Oil the table and continue kneading the dough. Divide into 6–8 equal parts.
Take one part, lightly brush it with oil and roll it out very thin — so thin that the dough becomes translucent.

Step 2
Grate the cheese. Finely chop the herbs.

Spread the filling on half of the rolled out dough and smooth it out.
Cover with the second half of the dough and slightly press the edges together. Form a flatbread of a size that will fit on the pan.
