Method

Place in a warmed bowl, and make a well in the centre.

Dissolve the yeast with the pinch of sugar in a little of the lukewarm water. Pour into the well in the flour.

Add half the oil, the salt and the remaining water to the well in the flour and mix all together well. Knead on a lightly floured surface to form a pliable smooth dough. This will take about 5-10 minutes.
