| flour 500 g |
| dry yeast 8 g |
| warm water 300 ml |

Step 1
Dissolve the yeast in the warm water. Add the sifted flour, salt, olive oil and knead into an elastic dough.
Step 2
Cover with a towel and leave in a warm place for 1 hour.
Step 3
Divide into small balls, press with the palm of your hand and roll out into tortillas no more than 0.5-1 cm thick.
Step 4
Preheat the oven with a baking tray to 250 C. With the door open, quickly place the tortillas on the baking tray and close it immediately. Bake for 4-6 minutes.
Step 5
Drizzle with water and cover with a towel to prevent them from drying out.

For the filling, mix the tuna, finely chopped green onions and mayonnaise. Split the cucumber, remove the seeds and slice into bars.

Cut off the top of the pita and open it slightly. Place the cucumber slices in the middle and fill with the filling. Serve on lettuce leaves.
