Directions: |
Directions:Preheat the oven to 230 degrees C.
Firstly add the milk and water together with the sugar and heat until lukewarm (on the stove or microwave) then add the yeast. This will activate the yeast.
Add salt to the flour and mix with hands and create a “well” in the centre. Add the oil to the well followed by the yeast mixture. As you mix, the dough should remove from the sides. As you knead remove from the bowl and knead on a clean work surface.
Knead the dough until smooth and elastic. Once kneaded place in a bowl and cover with a damp cloth or clingfilm and place in a warm place to rise (around 1.5-2 hrs)
Whilst the dough is “proofing” make the flavored oil by mixing the oil with the crushed garlic and rosemary and set aside to infuse.
Once risen “knock” the air out by giving a quick knead once more and spread the dough in a baking tin (I use an oven roasting tray).
Smear the oil over the dough and use your fingers to create dimples in the dough. Then leave to proof in a carrier bag or covered with a damp cloth for 30 minutes.
Sprinkle with the sea salt flakes before placing in the oven for 15-20 minutes at 230 degrees C |
