   Knead on a floured surface for 10 min, or 5-7 min in a mixer with a dough hook, until smooth and elastic.

4. 4

   Put the dough in an oiled bowl, cover and leave in a warm place until doubled in size, 1-1 1/2 hours.

5. 5

   Grease a 23 cm (9 in) square baking pan and line it with parchment.

6. 6
