yeast dough:
-
1 For the dough: mix the flour and salt and make a hollow in the middle. Dissolve the yeast in a little milk and pour into the hollow along with the butter and the rest of the milk. Knead into a smooth dough, and then knead in the spinach. Cover and allow the dough to rise to double the quantity at room temperature.
-
2 Once the dough has risen, knead it again and divide into 6 portions. Roll out each portion into an oval of 7 x 15 cm. Lay it on baking paper in the baking tin, cover, and allow to rise for a further 15 minutes.
-
3 Butter the focaccias and cut crosses in them. Place a mozzarella cube in the centre of each cross, pressing in firmly. Sprinkle with garlic and season. Bake for 15-20 mins. in the middle of the oven, preheated to 200°C. Serve hot or just warm.
Preparation hint
One can easily pre-bake the focaccias. Bake them for 2-3 mins. less the first time, and allow to cool on a grid. Shortly before serving them, bake for a further 5 mins. in the oven, preheated to 200°C.
