Ingredients:

  • 1 tsp sugar
  • 300 ml tepid milk
  • 1 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 tbsp milk

Directions:

  1. Sprinkle yeast and sugar into 100ml of milk in a bowl.
  2. Let sit 5 mins; stir to dissolve.
  3. Stir in another 100ml of milk.
  4. Mix 400g of flour with the salt.
  5. Make a well in centre and pour in the yeasted milk.
  6. Mix with wooden spoon.
  7. Stir in the remaining 100ml of milk to form a sticky dough.
  8. If dough is too sticky, mix in the remaining flour (1 tablespoon at a time) until a knead-able dough forms.
  9. Turn dough out on a lightly floured surface.
  10. Knead until smooth and elastic (it will feel like a baby's bottom); about 10 minutes.
  11. Use the remaining (or more) flour if necessary.
  12. Put the dough in a lightly greased bowl.
  13. Turn to coat dough with oil.
  14. Cover with plastic wrap/tea towel.
  15. Leave to rise for 45 minutes.
  16. Knock back, cover and let rise again until doubled, about 45 minutes.
  17. Grease a 1 lb loaf pan.
  18. Shape the dough to fit in the pan.
  19. Cover, then prove until dough is 1-inch above the top of the pan (about 1 hour).
  20. Make egg glaze by lightly beating the egg with 1 tablespoon of milk.
  21. Brush the top of the loaf with the glaze.
  22. Bake in a preheated oven at 400°F/200°C for 45 minutes until golden and hollow-sounding when tapped underneath.
  23. Turn out onto a wire rack and leave to cool.
