  • 300 ml Tepid Water

  • Next add your tepid water and stir using a wooden spoon or your hands
  • Cover the bowl with Clingfilm or a shower cap
  • Leave somewhere warm for 12-18 hours (overnight)After prooving your dough will be covered in pin prick air holes
  • Flour the work surface and tip your dough out - it will be stringy and wet - use more flour to help
  • Cover your hands in flour and shape into a ball - it will be very soft and a dough scraper might help
  • Pop the dough ball on some baking paper, cover loosely with cling film and leave for 30 minutes - it won't get much bigger
  • Preheat your oven 230C/450F - when the oven is hot pop your casserole / le Cruset dish in the oven to heat up
  • Once the dough is proved and the pot is hot remove the pot from the oven
  • Lift your dough on the baking paper and pop it into your hot pot - make sure your baking paper is not sticking out the pot - either trim it or pop it under the lid
  • Put the lid on your pot and bake in the centre of the oven for 30 minutes
  • After 30 minutes remove the lid and bake for a further 15 minutes until golden
  • Leave to cool on a wire rack and enjoy!
