This is one of my favourite breads. made well its awesome, but its very easy to make too.
- Flour 1kg
- Instant Active yeast-20 gm
- Sugar-20 gm
- Salt -20 gm
- Water-800 ml
- Olive oil-100 ml
Mix Flour with yeast, sugar and salt.Add in the water. the dough will be very very sticky.
Dont worry thats normal.Add in half of the oil.
allow to proof for about 20minutes.(keep in a warm area with gladwrap on dough or a wet tea towel).
Divide into 4 and spread flat on baking trays with the remainder of the oil.make dimples with your fingers on the top
of the dough and then add the oil.
when the bread is proofed nicely(risen) . This is he second time the bread is getting proofed so can take between 20-35 mins before it’s done .
Bake at 195 C for 13-15 minutes. These temps don’t work for domestic ovens so we need to boost them by about 20-30 C approximately 220 c for a pre heated oven .
You can add fresh herbs in the dough and some rock salt/ salt flakes on top before the baking process
.Enjoy it hummus, just some olive oil and balsamic dressing or for a sandwich.only your creativity limits you.
Today im making a higher fibre version of this with 20% oats added and that much reduced from the flour content of it
