Critical Success Points

  • Blend the spinach with garlic, ginger, salt and water until smooth.
  • Let the dough rest 30 minutes to relax the gluten.
  • The double fold and oil brushing before each fold are essential for flaky layers.
  • Cook over medium‑high heat: wait for bubbles before brushing oil and flipping.

Safety Warnings

  • Handle the hot pan with care to avoid burns.
  • Hot oil can splatter: keep your face away and use a lid if necessary.
