Using a rolling pin, flatten each pita ball by making a rounded shape of 2 or 3 mm thick
Prepare 2 Sopalin sheets for each pita ball
Place a pita on one sheet and cover it with the other sheet. You can also place them on a floured cloth and cover them with another cloth
Leave the pitas up for another 30 minutes
Heat a pan, then cook the pita a few minutes
As soon as bubbles appear, turn each bread over to cook it on the other side and make it swell
Store the pitas in a plastic bag so that they keep their softness.
