Mix them well,make it as square shape and put it in a fridge for 15 mins

Another bowl,add 2 cup maida/all purpose flour,sugar,salt,2tsp of unsalted butter

Now place that butter dough in the centre cover the dough on four sides,Now let it rest for 15 mins in fridge

After 15 mins,roll them as a 1 cm thick sheet and folding it up again

One round of rolling out and folding up its so called turn
