In a large mixing bowl, add flour and salt. Then add yeast mixture and 3tbsp oil. Mix until the dough comes together, adding more flour as needed until dough is smooth, Transfer to medium bowl with oil, and place the dough in the bowl, smooth side up. Cover tightly with plastic wrap, and place in a warm spot until doubled in size, about 1hour. Remove plastic wrap, and press your fist into the center of the dough to punch it down. Fold the dough back onto itself four or five times.
In a mean time pre-heat the oven to 180c for 10minutes.
