Description

Ingredients

• 1 cup of warm water
• 2 ¼ tsps of active dry yeast
• 1 tbsp sugar
• 2 tsps salt
• 2 tbsps olive oil
• 3 cups of bread flour
• Half the dough created from pizza dough recipe
• 2 tbsps salted butter, softened
• 2 garlic cloves, minced
• ¼ cup Parmesan cheese, grated
• ½ cup mozzarella cheese, grated
• Salt and pepper for seasoning

Directions

• First for the pizza dough. In a large bowl, stir the yeast and sugar into the warm water. Leave it to stand for approximately 10 minutes or until the mix begins to foam. Add to the mixture the salt, olive oil and half of the flour and give it a good mix. Gradually add in the remaining flour and mix it in until you have a dough that is a bit tacky but doesn’t stick to your hands. Knead the dough for 6 minutes. Your arms may well start hurting but do persist! When needed, place dough in a greased bowl and cover it. Leave it to rise for between 1-2 hours. It can then be used as and when you need it. Next for the breadsticks. Mix the garlic and butter in a bowl and leave for later. Spread the dough (half of what you made earlier) into a 12 inch circle on a baking sheet lined with greaseproof paper. Spread the butter and garlic on top of the dough and then sprinkle on the parmesan and mozzarella. Season with salt and pepper. Bake in an oven pre-heated to 260C for 10 minutes. When removed from the oven leave to cool for 2 minutes. Then cut into thin strips to resemble breadsticks.
