You will need:
500g Strong bread flour
300ml warm water
25g Butter (Melted)
1 tbsp Sugar
1 tsp Salt
7g Dried yeast
1 Large Onion (Sliced)
2 Garlic Cloves (Diced)
1 tbsp Oil
30g Fresh sage (Sliced) (or substitute for 4 tbsp Dried Sage)
Method:
1. Firstly in a bowl, mix together the flour, sugar and salt until combined.
2. Then add your yeast and stir.
3. Then add the melted butter and warm water and mix until it forms a dough. You want the water to be about body temperature.
4. On a floured surface start to knead the dough. You will need to knead the dough for a total of 10 minutes. Once kneaded the dough should be smooth and elastic. Of you can use a dough hook on a mixer for 10 minutes.
5. Leave your dough to rise in an oiled bowl that has been covered either with an oiled piece of clingfilm or a clean tea towel. You will need to leave your dough to rise for about an hour or until doubled in size in a warm place.
6. While the dough is rising, in a frying pan over a low heat add the oil, onion and garlic and sauté for 5 mins until the onions are translucent.
7. Then add the sage and cook for a further 2 mins.
8. Remove from the heat and allow to cool.
9. Once risen, on a floured surface knock the dough back for a couple of minutes.
10. Then divide your dough into 6 equal pieces, and roll them into balls. Then place on a pre-lined baking tray with baking paper making sure to leave plenty of space between each piece as they will expand.
8. Cover with your oiled clingfilm or clean tea towel and leave to rise again in a warm place for 30 minutes to an hour.
9. Remove the clingflim/tea towel and then bake in a pre-heated oven at Gas Mark 6, 200C or 180C fan assisted for 15-18 mins. Your bread is ready when it sounds hollow when you tap the bottom.
