Focaccia



This is rosemary garlic bread made with pizza dough. Simple but yummy, your guests will love it alongside any dinner.

You need (for 2 rectangles)

500 g of flour
1 sachet of dried yeast
325 ml lukewarm water
half a tablespoon of sugar
1 teaspoon salt
rock salt
fresh rosemary
olive oil
garlic

Mix a couple of tablespoons of olive oil with chopped garlic and leave at the side.

Dissolve the yeast in the water. Mix the flour, sugar and salt. Stir in the water with a fork. Knead the dough for 5 to 10 minutes. Don't worry if it keeps sticking to your hands, just get it off with the fork when you've finished kneading. 
Put the dough in a bowl and cover it with a kitchen towel. Put it in a warm place for at least half an hour (or in the oven at 60 degrees). 
Put half the dough on a tray lined with greaseproof paper. Flatten it with your fingers. 

Brush on the garlic oil. Sprinkle rosemary and rock salt on top. 



Bake at 250 degrees for roughly 10 minutes or until golden brown.
