    Instructions
     

    ACTIVATING YEAST

    • Add water and sugar in a bowl and mix well.
    • Add yeast and mix it too.
    • Rest for 10-15 minutes or until yeast mixture turns frothy and bubbly.

    MAKING OF DOUGH

    • In the activated yeast, add flour, salt, oregano, chilli flakes and 1 tbsp of oil.
    • Mix everything well.
    • Now start adding water to assemble the dough.
    • Knead it for 10-12 minutes until a stretchy dough is ready.
    • Grease the bowl as well dough with a tsp of oil.
    • Cover the bowl properly and leave it at some warm place in the kitchen for 2 hours.

    SHAPING THE BREAD

    • After 2 hours, the dough must have been doubled in size.
    • Knead it for a minute.
    • Now start making small and smooth balls of random size.
    • Arrange all balls on a baking tray lined with greased butter paper, surrounding each other with a slight gap between them to rise.
    • Cover the balls with a kitchen towel and again place them at some warm place in the kitchen for 1 hour.
    • After 1 hour, give a good milk wash to the balls which must have been doubled by now.
    • Bake in a pre-heated oven @200°C for 15 minutes in the middle rack with both the rods on. If the bread is properly baked but hasn't attained the brown top yet, then shift the baking tray on top rack, set the temperature of oven at high for 1-2 minutes, but be very careful and vigilant during this time.
    • Take the bread out and brush with butter while it is hot.
    • Bubble bread is ready. Enjoy the way you like.

    Notes

    All purpose flour can be used in place of whole wheat flour.
    Oregano, chilli flakes and mix herbs are mentioned as optional and you can bake a simple basic bubble bread also without using any of these.
    You may also add garlic powder or fresh minced garlic in the dough, if you like.
