A breakfast loaf from Turkish home ovens, nigella seed and cheese bread is made by scattering nigella seeds over a cheese-studded dough, scoring it and baking it in the oven. It also makes a practical option waiting in the pantry for a late-night snack.

Step by Step

How to make it?

1

Knead the dough

8 min

Dissolve the yeast in the warm water and knead with the flour, olive oil and salt.

2

Let it rise

40 min

Cover the dough with cling film and let it rise in a warm spot for 40 minutes until doubled.

3

Fold in the cheese

5 min

Punch down the risen dough, fold in the cubed cheese and shape into a loaf.

4

Score and bake

25 min

Brush with beaten egg, sprinkle with nigella seeds, score the top with a knife and bake in an oven preheated to 200°C for 25 minutes until golden.

Reminder

Cool the bread on a wire rack after baking; leaving it on the counter makes the base go soggy. Allergens: contains wheat (gluten), milk and dairy (cheese), egg.

Editor's Note Editörün Notu

Adding the cheese during the final fold rather than at the start of kneading keeps the pieces intact instead of melting away.

Peynir küplerini biraz büyük kesmiştim, fırında kısmen dışarı taştı. Bir dahaki sefere daha küçük küpler halinde doğrayıp hamurun içine daha derin gömeceğim, kenarları da sıkıca kapatacağım.

40 dakikalık mayalanma soğuk mutfağımda yetmedi, hamur tam iki katına çıkmadan 55 dakika beklemek zorunda kaldım. Fırın süresini değiştirmeden yine de güzel pişti, dışı çıtır oldu.

Beyaz peynir yerine dana pastırma parçalarıyla denedim, hamurun içinde erimeden kaldı ve tuzlu bir derinlik kattı, ailem çok beğendi ve ikinci dilimi de hemen istedi.
