Challah recipe -

2oz fresh yeast dissolved in 200ml water with 1 heaped T caster sugar

1 heaped T salt - put in bottom of large bowl

1 bag (1.5kg) strong flour - add to bowl

7 heaped T sugar - add to bowl (can put 8 if you want it sweeter or add raisins)

4oz cooking oil - add to bowl

550ml warm water - add to bowl

Follow this order because the salt must not touch the yeast. Once the yeast has dissolved add to the bowl and mix all ingredients together. Let it rise for 1-2 hours. Plait the dough and leave to rise another 1/2 an hour. Coat challahs with egg and sprinkle sesame or poppy seeds. Cook for 25 mins at 180 degrees. For small challah bake for 15 mins.
