      Yield: 1 Servings
 
      1 lb White Unbleached Plain Flour
      4 tb Olive Oil
      1 ts Salt
    1/2 pt Warm Water
    1/2    Dry yeast Sachet
        pn Sugar
           Rosemary or Sage
 
  Mash the yeast with a little of the water until it looks like mud.
  Add the sugar and leave for 10 minutes until frothy.
  
  Put the rest of the water, the flour, a little of the salt and the
  olive oil into a large bowl. When the yeast is frothy, add that too.
  Knead thoroughly for about 5 minutes. cover with a clean, damp tea
  towel or cling film and leave it in the bowl in a warm place for
  about 30 minutes. It will double in size.
  
  Take the dough out, put on a board, cut it in half and spread so you
  have two dinner plate-sized pieces. Sprinkle the rest of the salt
  over the top, then add the rosemary or sage leaves, patting them into
  the dough.
  
  Put the loaves into a hot oven, gas mark 7, 400F, 200C for about 20
  minutes.
  
  The bread will only rise marginally and will have a lovely pale
  golden top.
