*FULL RECIPE: Pan-Fried Flour Bread*

*Ingredients:*
4 cups of all-purpose flour
1/2 packet of fresh yeast (or equivalent dry yeast)
1 tablespoon of sugar
1.5 cups of warm water (approximate, adjust based on flour)
2 teaspoons of salt

*Instructions (Summary):*
1. In a mixing bowl, combine flour, yeast, sugar, and 1 cup of warm water to activate the yeast.
2. Add salt directly to the flour (avoiding direct contact with yeast initially).
3. Gradually knead the dough, adding water until a very soft, chewy consistency is achieved (approximately 1.5 cups total water).
4. Cover the dough and allow it to rise (proof) in a warm place for about one hour, or until doubled in size.
5. Gently punch down the air, divide the dough into 6-8 portions (based on desired size).
6. Shape the portions into smooth balls.
7. Place the dough balls in a lightly greased, medium-sized pan (or large pan) and pan-fry until golden brown and cooked through on both sides.
