2.
Once the dough has been kneaded leave to prove in a covered floured bowl for 3 to 4 hours or until it has doubled in size.

Preheat oven at 220 degrees C (425 degrees F).

Once the dough has proved remove from the bowl and knead for another 3 minutes in a well floured surface. Extend the dough using a rolling pin until is 1/2 cm thick.

Once the dough is fully rolled and a "sausage" like bread has been created, move it to a baking tray lined with parchment paper.
9.
With a fork prick the bread all over and glaze with a beaten Free Range Egg (1).
10.
Place the tray in the oven and bake for 20 minutes until is golden brown.
