2 tbs cooking oil
1 C salt
few drops food colouring (we used green)
2 C boiling water

Steps:
1. Place all ingredients apart from boiling water into a large bowl.
2. Pour over boiling water and stir mixture with a large spoon until combined and the dough has begun to cool down.


3. Sprinkle your benchtop with a little flour. Lift warm dough out of the bowl and knead over the flour until it looks like play dough. This is my favourite part; the dough just feels wonderful. Mmmmm.
