  2. Add the yeast and sugar and mix until dissolved.
  3. Leave to rise in a warm, draft-free place for 15 minutes.
  4. Add the flour into the bowl of a stand mixer and dig a well in the center. Add the mixture of milk and yeast, sour cream, oil, lemon juice (or vinegar) and egg to the center of the well.
