Recipe: Kylie Kara's Herb Fried Bread

Herb Fried Bread.

Makes 1-2 loaves

• 6 C flour
• 2 tsp salt
• 1 tbsp sugar
• ½ cup fresh thyme
• ¼ cup chopped parsley

In a smaller bowl, combine:
• ½ cup warm water
• ½ tsp sugar

1. Combine the above ingredients in a large bowl and set to one side.

2. Once combined, sprinkle 3 teaspoons of yeast over the top and leave to rise. Make a well in the bowl of dry ingredients and add ¼ cup of oil and the yeast mixture and combine with about a litre of warm water to make a dough that's not too dry or too sticky.

3. Knead the dough with a little flour on a bench, then place mixture back into the bowl and leave to rise in a warm area. When risen, knead again and cut into shapes using a cup or other shape.

4. Fry in canola oil until puffy and brown and leave to thoroughly drain.
