Hi chef888.
Keep'em as wet as you possibly can-'sticky'.
I know it's not always that easy to knead wet dough,but i find the wetter you keep them,the less they dry out during the cooking stage.
I use a tawa to cook mine- roughly 1 minute  on each side is more than enough on a gas hob.

Hope this helps.
