- Gradually mix the liquid with the dry ingredients until fully combined.

- Grease a metal tray with olive oil and place the dough in it, cover with greased cling film and put in a warm place for 20 minutes.
- Remove the dough from the tray and divide into three smaller balls around 140g each and return to tray with the cling film and leave to rise until doubled in size for around an hour.
