Ok so apparently I put "waaaaaaaaaay" too much garlic in things, and as result, both Frosty and the cat are keeping away. But it was tasty and well worth it IMO!
2 cups plain flour
1 sachet dry yeast
2 tablespoons olive oil
pinch of salt
pinch of sugar
3/4 cup warm water
various herbs and spices, I used the following:
Basil, oregano, chili powder, onion flakes, garlic salt and diced BACON.
Start by combining the dry herbs with the flour and yeast in a large mixing bowl, add the salt, sugar and bacon, combine. Add the oil and water, and you'll need to combine and mix with your hand by this point. Mix/knead it lightly in the bowl, form a ball, throw some cling-wrap over the top and set someplace warm for half an hour to rise.
Knead it lightly out onto a floured surface and shape into whatever focaccia-type shape you want.. I formed it into little balls (about the half size of my fist?) and arranged them on the baking tray with one in the middle then around the outer, in a circle.. kind of.. as they cook, they join. So it makes it one of those "pull apart" breads.
Let it sit on the tray for 15-20 minutes, to rise a little bit more, then sprinkle the top with cheese if you wish.. I used mozzarella. Bake for around an hour or until cooked, enjoy!
