Method
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 200ºC (190ºC fan, gas mark 6).
Step 2
Sift the flour, salt and sugar into a bowl and stir in the yeast. Mix the oil and water together. Make a well in the centre of the flour mixture and stir in the liquid. Bring together with a round bladed knife.
Step 3
Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and knead well for 10 minutes. Now, knead the spring onions and parsley into the dough. Divide in half. Pat each half of the dough to an oval shape and place on a lightly oiled baking sheet.
Step 4
Cover with oiled cling film or a damp tea towel and leave to rise in a warm place for 1 hour or until doubled in size.
Step 5
Scatter the cheese over the bread and bake for 20 – 25 minutes.
Step 6
Cool on a wire rack. Serve warm.
