Focaccia Greek style by Grandpa Tassos

This is my interpretation of an Italian classic

  Method  

  1. In a bowl place the flour, yeast , salt and mix. Add the water and oil, stir, cover and let it double in volume.

  2. Cut the herbs.

  3. Finely chop the onion and pepper, mash the garlic and put it in a little oil.

  4. Add all the ingredients to the dough and knead.

  5. Empty the dough into the pan , grease your hands with the oil and garlic and spread the dough in the baking tray

  6. Leave it covered to rest for 20 minutes

  7. Bake on the second shelf from below for about 35 minutes, taking out 5 minutes before the baking is over and spread with garlic oil.
