Place the flours in a bowl, add enough of the water to make a soft pliable dough. Add the melted butter, knead until smooth. Cover the bowl with a damp cloth, leave in a warm place for one hour. Divide into 16 pieces and, using a little oil on the hands, shape into balls. Grease the rolling pin and board with oil, roll each ball into a thin pancake.

Drain on absorbent paper, serve as soon as possible.
