  • In case your dough (in any of these recipes) becomes too watery or sticky, just add in a little more self-rising flour and knead until it forms well.
  • Make sure to always use plain and unflavoured Greek yogurt (low-fat, preferably), in all these recipes.
  • While combing the Greek yogurt with the self-rising flour, always add in little by little and keep kneading as you go. This will help improve the elasticity of the dough.
