1 glass of warm water (200 ml)
1 teaspoon salt (5 g)
For Assembling:
100 g butter (melted)

Instructions:
Prepare the Dough:
Mix Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the 2.5 cups of all-purpose wheat flour, 1 glass of warm water, and 1 teaspoon of salt. Mix well until a soft dough forms that slightly sticks to your hands. This mixture creates the foundation for your delicious Katmer.
Knead the Dough: Sprinkle some flour on your working surface and knead the dough for about 5 minutes until it becomes smooth and elastic. Proper kneading is essential for developing the gluten, which gives the Katmer its structure.
Rest the Dough: Cover the dough with a clean kitchen towel and let it rest for 10 minutes. This resting period allows the gluten to relax, making it easier to roll out later.
Divide the Dough: After resting, divide the dough into 4 equal parts. Cover and let them rest for an additional 5 minutes. This ensures that the dough stays moist and pliable.
