Directions
- 1Prepare the yeast mixture by adding room temperature milk, sugar, and yeast. Mix well and set aside. If using active dry yeast, activate it before use.
- 2In a separate bowl, sift bread flour (or use all-purpose flour with slightly less liquid). Add salt and mix.
- 3Slowly pour the yeast mixture into the dry ingredients and mix until a dough forms.
- 4Knead the dough for 3-4 minutes, then add softened butter and knead for another 15 minutes until smooth and elastic. Do the windowpane test to check the elasticity.
- 5Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover, and let it rise for 1 hour. For cold kitchens, proof it in a switched-off oven or microwave with a cup of hot water.
- 6Prepare the garlic butter mixture: mix garlic paste, softened butter, chili flakes, chopped parsley, and salt.
- 7Punch down the risen dough, roll it out evenly, and spread the garlic butter mixture over the surface.
- 8Generously sprinkle mozzarella and cheddar cheese over the garlic butter.
- 9Cut the dough into strips, stack them, and place them in a prepared loaf pan.
- 10Let the assembled dough proof for another hour.
- 11Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F). Brush the top of the dough with extra garlic butter.
- 12Bake for 30 minutes until golden brown and crispy.
