   Using your fingers, gently mix everything together until it’s well combined, allowing the aromas to mingle.

5. Step 5

   Now, it’s time to bring your dough to life! Gradually pour in water while mixing with your hands until a soft, cohesive dough forms.

   Once your dough is ready, transfer it to a floured surface and knead it for about seven minutes.

7. Step 7

   You’re looking for a smooth and elastic texture, so don’t rush this step! After kneading, cover your dough with a damp cloth and let it rest for 30 minutes.
