°Warm water: 3 cups
°Sugar: 1/4 cup
°Yeast: 1 1/2 tbsp.
°Oil: 1/3 cup

* Methods 

1. Begin by dissolving the yeast, in a large mixing bowl, in warm water and sugar and let it sit for 10 minutes.
2. You will want to add the oil, salt, and flour (starting with 6 cups of flour) and mix everything well.
3. Now, knead the dough well for 6 to 10 minutes, or until everything is homogeneous (that's right, until the dough is smooth, elastic, slightly sticky and pulled away from the bowl).
4.  While kneading the dough, be sure to add more flour as needed. And please repeat the process until the dough reaches the desired consistency.
5. Use dish towel or plastic wrap, covering bowl of dough. Leave to double, it takes at least 1 hour depending on the temperature of your kitchen. It is wise to place the covered pot inside the oven with the oven turned on, and another pot of warm water on the lower rack to speed up this process.
