Ingredients
400 gms plain flour
1 tsp dried yeast
250 mls warm water
1 tsp salt
Splash of olive oil
Fleur du sel for topping
A bit more olive oil
Rosemary
Method
  • Mix the first 5 ingredients in a large bowl until the dough comes together. You may need a little bit more flour or water to make a smooth dough. Knead for a minute or so then return to the bowl, cover with a damp cloth and leave in a warm place to prove for 1 1/2 to 2 hours.
  • The dough should have risen to double the size. Remove from the bowl and knead briefly.
  • In a baking tin or 1¨ deep sheet pan, stretch the dough to fit the space (typically, I´ve used two 9¨ round baking pans, but it depends on what you have available)
  • Cover again with a damp cloth and prove for another hour and a half.
  • Heat the oven to 395ºF (about 200ºC). Place a bowl filled with water on the bottom shelf.
  • Remove the cloth, poke holes in the dough. Sprinkle with fleur du sel and rosemary, and sprinkle a little extra olive oil on top.
  • Bake for 30-35 minutes, until the focaccia is browned on top.
