Instructions

Step 1

Mix all the topping ingredients & set aside for later.

Step 4

Wet your hands, pull the dough up on one side & fold in the middle. Repeat on all four sides. Then cover the dough & let it rest in a warm place for 1 hour. Repeat the process 3-4 times & leave to rise for one hour in between each time.
