The Recipe (per 500g of mix, makes 1 loaf)

You'll need: 500g mix, 300ml water, 2 tsp oil, a large bowl, dough scraper and a 700g loaf tin. Baking from a 1kg bag? Double everything and bake two loaves.

1. Add the bread mix, water and 2 tsp of oil to a large bowl. Mix until a shaggy dough forms. Cover and rest for 10 minutes.
2. Knead on a lightly oiled bench for 3 to 5 minutes, until the dough feels tight when pressed. Return to an oiled bowl and rest for 30 minutes.
3. Knead again for 2 to 3 minutes until smooth. Return to the bowl and prove for 60 to 90 minutes, or until doubled in size.
4. Divide the dough into 2 even balls with your dough scraper.
5. Shape each into a tight ball with a cupping motion, without pressing the dough down.
6. Lightly oil the inside of your baking tin.
7. Place the balls side by side in the tin. Cover for the final prove.
8. Preheat your oven to 180°C fan forced (200°C conventional).
9. When the dough reaches 1cm from the top of the tin, bake for 45 minutes or until golden brown.
10. Cool on a rack for 30 minutes before slicing.
11. Slice and make the Ploughman's!

The Ploughman's

Butter both slices edge to edge. Ploughman's pickle on the bottom slice, then leg ham, vintage cheddar, thin green apple and butter lettuce. Lid on, press gently, halve. Pickled onion on the side if you're committed.
