  4. Line a baking sheet with some parchment paper and set aside.

  5. Roll the dough on a lightly floured surface so its about 1/2 thick, lightly dust the surface of the dough with a little flour, fold the dough in thirds and roll it out again to 1/2 thick, repeat the folding one more time and roll it out to about 3/4 thick.
