Ingredients

Dough

  • 500 g strong bread flour
  • 10 g fine sea salt
  • 7 g instant yeast (1 sachet)
  • 400 ml lukewarm water
  • 4 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil (plus extra for tin and top)

To finish

  • 4 sprigs fresh rosemary, leaves only
  • 2 tsp sea salt flakes
  • 3 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil

Instructions

Dough

  • Mix flour, salt and yeast in a large bowl. Pour in water and olive oil. Mix with a spoon until no dry flour remains.
  • Cover, rest 15 min. Wet your hand, do one round of stretch and folds. Repeat twice more at 15-min intervals.
  • Cover and let rise at room temp 1.5 hours until puffy and doubled. (Alternatively: refrigerate overnight then return to room temp for 1 hour before shaping.)

Shape and bake

  • Generously oil a 23x33cm baking tray. Tip dough into the tray, turn to coat both sides in oil. Gently stretch to fill tray. Cover, rest 45 min.
  • Preheat oven to 220°C fan-forced.
  • Drizzle 2 tbsp olive oil on top. Using oiled fingertips, press down firmly through to the tin to create dimples all over.
  • Scatter rosemary leaves and flaky salt across the top.
  • Bake 20-25 minutes until deep golden. Cool in tin 10 min. Drizzle with extra olive oil. Cut into squares and serve warm.
