Garlic And Rosemary Focaccia

Who doesn't love the smell of fresh garlic bread baking at home?

Ingredients

7 gms active dry yeast

1.5 tsp sugar

4 cups plain flour

1/2 tsp salt

3 tbsp Pukara Estate Garlic Extra Virgin Olive Oil

1.5 tbsp dried rosemary

3 finely minced cloves of garlic

1.5 tsp of your favourite Pukara Estate Salt Flakes

Method

In a bowl, combine yeast, sugar, and 1 1/2 cups of lukewarm water. Prove yeast for 10-15 minutes. Add 4 cups of flour, 1 tbsp of Garlic Oil, and the salt, then stir through, adding more flour if necessary. The consistency should be soft and sticky.

Place in a lightly oiled bowl and turn to coat lightly with oil. Cover and place in a warm spot for an hour to rise or double in size.

Knead dough again and place in a well-oiled 38 x 26 x 3 cm pan. Cover loosely and allow to rise for 30 minutes.

Mark dough with fingers and drizzle remaining olive oil, rosemary, and salt on top. Place on the center rack of a preheated 200°C oven.

Cook for 35-40 minutes or until golden brown.

Let stand for 10 minutes before slicing.
