Instructions
Prepare the roll dough
In a bowl, make a well, pour in the yeast, sugar and a little warm water (≈ 30 ml). Mix until dissolved, then add the remaining warm water, oil, yogurt, salt and flour. Knead with fingertips, then knead for 3 minutes until a supple dough forms that no longer sticks.
