The layers are the whole trick and they come from rolling the dough flat, brushing it with oil, rolling it into a rope, coiling it and flattening it again. Nobody would work that out unaided. Chef Suki showed it twice because the first time it looks like sleight of hand. Mine came out with visible flaky layers rather than a solid disc, which was the entire reason I'd booked, and the dough itself is only flour and hot water.
