The flour mixture would begin to leave the sides of the flour. Add the last cup of flour and begin to knead the bowl.
- Working with your hands, knead the mixture, till you get a soft, smooth and elastic dough. If the dough appears dry, then add some water. - If the dough is little sticky, it's alright.
