Equipment
- 1 Jug
- 1 Stand mixer with dough hook
- 1 Large bowl
- 1 Wooden spoon
- 1 Plastic wrap
- 1 Frypan
- 1 Oven tray
- 1 Baking paper
- 1 Sharp knife
Instructions
- In a jug, whisk water, yeast and honey then set aside in a warm place until frothy.
- Place flours, salt, oil and water mixture in the bowl of a stand mixer with the dough hook attachment and mix until dough is soft and elastic. You may need to add a little extra water if it is too dry. Alternatively, mix the flours and salt in a large bowl, make a well in the centre and pour in oil and water mixture. Stir with a wooden spoon until dough comes together, then turn out onto a floured surface and knead until dough is soft and elastic.
- Place in a lightly oiled bowl, cover in plastic wrap and place in a warm place until dough has doubled in size.
- Meanwhile, heat oil in a frypan over gentle heat. Cook onion and garlic until soft. Add bacon and fry for a further 2 minutes. Add spinach, combine well and cook for a few more minutes, seasoning well with salt and pepper. Finally, crumble over feta cheese and stir to combine. Remove from heat.
- Turn dough out onto a floured surface and roll out into a 30 x 40cm rectangle with the longer side in front of you. Distribute spinach mixture evenly over the entire surface. Sprinkle with half of the tasty cheese. Beginning at the front, roll over the dough and continue so that it looks like a big Swiss roll.
- Preheat oven. Line an oven tray with baking paper.
- Using a sharp knife, cut roll into 12 even pieces. Take each piece and place it on its side on the tray, gently squeezing it out into a circle shape. Make sure that they nestle up against each other on the tray. Allow to rest.
- Sprinkle remaining cheese over the top of the scrolls. Bake until golden.
