Can u give clear instructions on how to let it rise. Also is the dough meant to be so wet?

Just leave it in the bowl covered and let it rise. A little sticky is pretty normal but you should be able to shape it, if you can't you can try to add a little bit of flour.

Can this dough be frozen and used a week or two later
