Knead the dough on a floured surface for 10 minutes until it becomes soft and flexible.
Put the dough in a greased bowl and cover it. Let it stay in a warm place for 1 to 1.5 hours until the dough doubles in size.
After the dough has doubled in size, place it on a floured surface and gently shape it into a rectangle.
Divide the dough into three or four parts and shape each part into long, thin strips.
Place the strips of dough on a baking tray lined with baking paper. Using a sharp blade or knife, make thin diagonal cuts on the bread.
