Ingredients
- 500 gm Refined Flour
- 1 tbsp Flaxseed Powder
- 1 Medium-Sized Beetroot
- ½ Cup Water
- 10 gm Salt
- 10 gm Sugar
- 7 gm Instant Dry Yeast
- 1 tbsp Olive Oil
Instructions
- Wash, peel and grate the beetroot.
- Grind it into a fine paste. Add about 1/3 cup of water to aid in perfect grinding.
- Mix yeast, sugar and about 1/3 cup water in a small bowl. Wait till the yeast blooms. If the yeast is of good quality, it should happen in a few minutes.
- In a big mixing bowl, combine refined flour, salt and flaxseed powder.
- Now add the sugar and yeast mixture.
- Add beetroot paste.
- Knead for about 10 minutes and prepare a soft dough.
- Round the dough and rest it in a warm place for about an hour.
- After an hour, the dough will double in size.
- Add olive oil and knock the flour. Knead and transfer the dough into a bread mould.
- Now let it rest again for about 30 minutes in a warm place.
- 10 minutes before the 30 minutes get over, turn on the oven to 200 deg C and preheat it for 10 minutes. That way, once the resting time is over, you will have a preheated oven ready.
- After the dough has rested for 30 minutes, you will notice that the dough has risen again. Now transfer it into the preheated oven and bake it for 30 minutes.
- Remove after 30 minutes and let it cool completely before slicing it.
