Drizzle some veg.oil on the dough; knead until the dough turns smooth and soft.



(*Step 4*) Cover with a towel or plastic wraps in the bowl, leave it to rise for at least 1hour in a room temperature (or till dough double its size). 



After that, punch lightly to deflate the excess air, and transfer to a work surface



(*Step 5*) Gently sprinkle some flour on the work surface


Roll dough with your hand and shape into a log. 



Get a kitchen knife and divide the dough into smaller equal parts.



(*Step 6*) Roll each piece into ball(s) (O O O O O O  O O ) and set aside.



Get a baking pan/ stainless bowl/aluminum pan or any heat safe dish. 



Lightly grease the pan/bowl with some veg.oil or butter or lined with a parchment paper to prevent sticking.



(*Step 7*) Gently arrange the dough ball(s) inside the pan/bowl (leave at least an inch space in between the rolls).



Cover for an additional 10-20mins, for the dough to rise and double in size again for baking.



(*Step 8*) Ready to bake-->without an oven, get a big pot, and add some salt to the bottom to absorb the excess heat. 



Drop a stand or rack inside it to limit direct contact to the pot, cover and preheat pot for few minutes.

*NB*: preheat pot/oven while dough are rising (in the pan/bowl) to avoid delay.
