Tomato focaccia
An Italian-style bread that is best eaten warm. To speed up the proving process, warm the flour first.
What you need
- 50 g sun-dried tomatoes, soaked for 20 min
- 350 g strong white flour
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 2 tsp easy blend dried yeast
- 75 ml olive oil
- 150 ml warm water
- Topping
- 45 ml olive oil
- 3 tsp sea salt
- 3 tsp fresh basil, chopped
- 3 tsp fresh thyme, chopped
Method
Drain tomatoes well. Chop finely.
Sieve flour and salt together into a warm bowl. Stir in the yeast.
Add the oil, warm water and tomatoes. Mix well. Knead on a lightly floured surface for 5 min. Roll out a rectangle 28 x 15 cm.
Place on a lightly oiled baking sheet. Make about 20 deep thumb indentations in the dough. Brush with the olive oil. Cover with cling film. Leave in a warm place for about 40 min.
Preheat oven to 220°C.
Mix the topping ingredients together. Sprinkle over the dough. Bake for about 20 min.
