 Ingredients List

  • 1 lb White Unbleached Plain Flour
  • 4 tb Olive Oil
  • 1 ts Salt
  • 1/2 pt Warm Water
  • 1/2 Dry yeast Sachet
  • pn Sugar
  • Rosemary or Sage

 Directions

Mash the yeast with a little of the water until it looks like mud. Add the
sugar and leave for 10 minutes until frothy.

Put the rest of the water, the flour, a little of the salt and the olive
oil into a large bowl. When the yeast is frothy, add that too. Knead
thoroughly for about 5 minutes. cover with a clean, damp tea towel or cling
film and leave it in the bowl in a warm place for about 30 minutes. It will
double in size.

Take the dough out, put on a board, cut it in half and spread so you have
two dinner plate-sized pieces. Sprinkle the rest of the salt over the top,
then add the rosemary or sage leaves, patting them into the dough.

Put the loaves into a hot oven, gas mark 7, 400F, 200C for about 20
minutes.

The bread will only rise marginally and will have a lovely pale golden top.
