Ingredients
-
500g (1lb) strong plain flour
-
100g (3½ oz) caster sugar
-
1 tsp salt
-
2 tsp ground cinnamon
-
6-7g sachet fast-action dried yeast
-
150g (5oz) raisins
-
300ml (½ pint) milkwarmed
-
30g (1oz) buttermelted
-
6 tbsp caster sugar
-
Butterto serve and butter the baking sheet, optional
How To
-
Step 1Tip flour into a bowl and stir in the sugar, salt, cinnamon, yeast and raisins. Mix together milk and butter and pour into the flour mixture. Mix until the ingredients bind together to form a soft dough. Knead the dough for about 10 minutes, in a machine or by hand, until it’s smooth and elastic.
-
Step 2Divide the dough into three pieces. Roll each piece into a long strip, then plait the three strips together, tucking the ends under the loaf.
-
Step 3Place the loaf in the centre of the baking sheet. Cover with a piece of oiled clingfilm and leave it in a warm place until it’s doubled in size.
-
Step 4Remove the clingfilm and cook loaf in centre of a preheated oven at 200°C (400°F, gas mark 6) for about 20 mins; then reduce the oven temperature to moderate – 180°C (350°F, gas mark 4) and continue to cook the loaf for a further 20-30 mins, or until it sounds hollow when tapped (lift loaf and tap it underneath, too).
-
Step 5To make the glaze, dissolve the caster sugar in 4 tbsp boiling water.
-
Step 6As soon as the loaf is cooked, remove it from the oven and transfer it to a wire rack, then brush over the glaze. Leave the loaf to cool a little before slicing it, and serve it either warm or cold, with or without butter.
-
Step 7Put the stir fry onto a warm plate and sprinkle the dish with the peanuts. Serve and enjoy!
