Step 1
In a large bowl, combine the sifted flour, sugar, salt, and yeast. Add warm water to the mixture and knead the dough. If you have a bread machine, the kneading process will be much faster and easier. Let the dough rise in a warm place for one hour. Then punch down the dough and let it rise again in a warm place for 30 minutes. Grease a baking sheet, place the dough on it, press it down slightly to form a flat round shape, and let the dough rest for a little while.

When the dough rises slightly on the baking sheet, use the edge of your hand to make grooves on it (around the entire perimeter of the flatbread).
