Ingredients:  
2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 tsp. olive oil
a pinch of salt
1 cup water, more, if needed
4 eggs
a pinch of salt
1 small onion, chopped
1/2 green pepper, chopped
1/2 tomato, chopped
2 chili peppers, chopped
honey
Directions:
Directions:
In a medium bowl, combine flour, oil, salt, and water to make the dough.

Divide the dough into five balls. Roll each ball using a rolling pin to a larger circle.

Brush the top of each circle of dough with half a teaspoon of oil. Fold the sides of each circle of dough to make a small square.

Roll each square of dough out to a large sheet of dough, roughly the size of a rectangle. The dough should be paper-thin.

Add a small amount of oil to a pan over medium heat, then place one sheet of dough into a pan.

Cook, flipping often, until done — it will have some golden and dark, small bubbles. Do the same for the remaining pieces of dough in the same manner, adding a small amount of oil before cooking each new one. This is called Fatira bread.

In a medium bowl, whisk together eggs, green peppers, tomatoes, salt, onions, and chili peppers.

Add a small amount of oil to the pan, then once heated, pour in a small amount of the egg mixture and cover it with a cooked Fatira. Cook until the eggs are done and remove from heat. Repeat until you've used up all of the egg mixture and all the Fatira breads.

Drizzle some honey on the top and Enjoy!
