  2. Now in a bowl add all purpose flour, salt, oil and frothy yeast mixture. Mix everything well and knead it into soft dough. ( I required a 1 tbsp water more for making dough). Cover the dough and keep it aside for an hour. (This rest time will help dough to double in size and will create aeration).
