The dough will be quite liquid at this point.tart sifting more flour into the bowl 25g at a time mixing it in with a wooden spoon as you go. It is important to add the flour just a little at a time; if not it may become too stiff which will be hard to fix even by adding more liquid. When the dough is no longer too sticky to be kneaded by hand. Dust your hands and the surface of the dough with flour and knead quickly for 2 minutes. The dough should be very soft and may still be slightly sticky at this stage.Divide the dough in half and shape each piece into a ball. Put each ball on to the centre of a piece of cling film and flatten into a disk with the palm of your hand.
