Garlic bread sticks

Garlic bread sticks are an absolute favorite! When made with a healthier substitute (wheat flour), they are irresistible. So here’s the recipe.

Ingredients:

  • Lukewarm water – 1/4 cup
  • Dry instant yeast – 1 teaspoon
  • Sugar – 1 teaspoon
  • Wheat flour – 1 cup
  • Salt – 1/4 teaspoon
  • Chilli flakes – 1/2 teaspoon
  • Oregano – 1/2 teaspoon
  • Unsalted butter – 2 tablespoon
  • Crushed garlic – 1 tablespoon
  • Mozzarella cheese grated – 1/2 cup

Method:

  • Combine the sugar and dry yeast with water
  • Mix and set aside for 5-7 mins (till the yeast activates)
  • In a bowl sieve and mix – the flour, salt, chilli flakes and oregano
  • Add the yeast mixture to the flour and knead
  • Add 2 tablespoons of water and then stretch and knead the dough for 5-7 minutes
  • Apply a coat of oil and keep aside for 1-2 hours
  • In a separate bowl make a mixture of the crushed garlic and butter and keep aside
  • After 2 hours, the dough rises twice in size
  • Deflate the dough and knead for a minute
  • Roll the dough in a round shape and fill the garlic mixture on half of it, leaving the edges out
  • Sprinkle the cheese on top of the garlic mixture
  • Brush water on the edges of the circle and seal it to form a semicircle
  • Place the bread on a pizza pan
  • Brush the sealed bread with remaining garlic butter
  • In pre-heated oven at 200 degree Celsius, bake the bread for 10-12 minutes at 200 degrees Celsius.

An amazing appetizer or snack or even an accompaniment with grilled chicken for dinner 🙂 I hope you enjoy this recipe.
