Add additional flour if the dough is too sticky.","Knead dough well and let stand 2 hours in a warm place. To allow the dough to rise, place the bowl with the dough (covered with a tea towel) onto the top rack of the oven and place a bowl of hot water on the lower rack. Leave the oven off, and this setup will gently warm and allow the dough to rise.","Divide the dough into 5 equally-sized balls.","Sprinkle sugar on a board, put a dough ball on the board, and roll out into a circle about 12 inches across.","Flip the dough over and put more sugar on the board.
