Ingredients

  1. 1 cupwarm water (about 110F)
  2. 2 tspsugar
  3. 2 tspactive-dry yeast
  4. 2 1/2 cupsall-purpose flour
  5. 1/4 cupextra virgin olive oil, plus extra for drizzling
  6. 1 tspsalt, if using rock or fine salt (2 tsp if using flaky salt), plus extra for toppings
  7. 2 sprigsfresh rosemary

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Proof the yeast. Add sugar onto water and stir until dissolved. Add the yeast, quickly stir mix and leave for 10 minutes. If the yeast is alive, the mixture should be foamy after 10 minutes.

  2. 2

    Once the yeast have been proofed, gradually add the flour, salt and oil while mixing on low speed. Mix on medium for 5 minutes. You can also do this by hand, by kneading on the bowl for 5 minutes until the ingredients are well combined and the dough is pulling away from the sides of the bowl. Add flour is the dough is too sticky.

  3. 3

    Shape the bowl into a ball and place into a greased bowl for the first rise. Cover the bowl with a damp towel then put the bowl in a warm place. Let the dough rise for 45-60 minutes or until double in size.

  4. 4

    Turn the dough onto a baking pan lined with wax paper and flattened to about 1/2 inches thick. Cover again with a damp cloth and continue to rise for 20 minutes.

  5. 5

    Preheat the oven at 210C.

  6. 6

    Using you finger, pole deep dents into the dough. Drizzle with olive oil and evenly sprinkle with rosemary needles and flaky sea salt.

  7. 7

    Bake for 20 minutes or until dough is slightly golden brown and cooked through.

  8. 8

    Remove from oven and drizzle with extra olive oil.
