Ingredients:

• Wholewheat flour 2 cups (250 gm)
• Salt to taste
• Sugar 1-2 tsp
• Instant yeast 1/2 tsp
• Diluted milk 1 cup minus 1 tbsp
• Garlic cloves 8-10
• Chilli flakes 1 tsp
• Mozzarella cheese 3 tbsp or more
• Butter as required
• Oil 1 tbsp
• Coriander leaves a small bunch
• Parsley optional

Method:

• Mix flour, salt, sugar, yeast and knead into a smooth and elastic dough using the milk.
• Apply oil to avoid the dough from sticking to your hands.
• Place the dough in an oiled bowl and allow it to rise till it is double in size.
• Punch out the gases from the dough and knead for a minute or two.
• Roll the dough into a big rectangle of approximately 14 by 12 inches or so.

• Apply some butter on the rectangle. Now, sprinkle some finely chopped garlic, coriander leaves, parsley and chilli flakes on top.

• Finally, top it with a nice layer of grated cheese. Using a sharp knife or a pizza cutter, cut these in to big rectangles with sides equal to the length and breadth of your bread tin.

• Grease a bread tin with oil and keep it ready. Line it with a parchment paper if needed.
• Stack the small rectangle pieces one above the other and arrange it in the bread tin.
• Keep the bread tin aside for 20-25 minutes till it is a bit puffy.
• Apply some milk wash on top and bake it in a preheated oven at 180-190 degree Celsius for 30-35 minutes or till the top is nice and golden in colour.
• Remove from the oven and apply some butter on top. Cool them on a wire rack and serve it warm with any soup or dip of your choice.
