Mix the flour and salt then pour one cup of water and start kneading
If you feel the dough is still not coming together or too dry, gradually add the remaining water until you get a dough that is very elastic so that when you pull it and it won’t be torn
Let the dough rest for just 10 minutes then divide the dough into 6-8 balls depending on the size you want for your feteer
Warm up the butter/ghee or oil you are using and pour into a deep bowl
Immerse the dough balls into the warm butter
Let it rest for 15 to 20 minutes
Preheat oven to 550F
Stretch the first ball with your hands on a clean countertop
Stretch it as thin as you can, the goal here is to see your countertop through the dough
Fold the dough over itself to form a square brushing in between folds with the butter mixture
Set aside and start making the next ball
Stretch the second one thin as we have done for the first ball
Place the previous one on the middle seam side down
Fold the outer one over brushing with more butter mixture as you fold
Set aside
Keep doing this for the third and fourth balls
Now we have one ready, place on a 10 inch baking/pie dish seam side down and brush the top with more butter
Repeat for the remaining 4 balls to make a second one
With your hands lightly press the folded feteer to spread it on the baking dish
Place in preheated oven for 10 minutes when the feteer starts puffing turn on the broiler to brown the top
When it is done add little butter on top and cover so it won’t get dry
