The ingredients needed to make Focaccia Bread:
- Make ready 2 1/2 cups All-purpose Flour or Maida
- Prepare 2 tsp Active Dry Yeast
- Make ready 1 tbsp Sugar
- Get 1/2 tsp Salt
- Take 2 tbsp Olive Oil
- Take 1 cup water
- Make ready 1 tbsp Red Chilli flakes
- Make ready 1 tbsp Italian Seasoning
- Make ready 1/4 cups Black Olives sliced

Steps to make Focaccia Bread:
- Add Yeast to lukewarm water at first with Sugar. Stir it and allow it to prove. Please keep in mind that Yeast is of good quality and fresh. Check the expiry date carefully. And if the Yeast mix gets spoilt or if doesn't prove, then discard it and make a new one. It becomes frothy after it is proved with a distinct smell.
- To this mixture, add All-purpose Flour or Maida along with Olive Oil and Salt. Mix well and bring it onto the kitchen counter for kneading it. Knead it well for about 5 minutes and then keep it in a greased bowl with a cover or a cling. Apply a little Olive Oil to it before covering it up with a cling film.
- Set it aside in a warm place to rise double it's volume. Take this Flour out into a well greased square baking pan. Spread it equally from all the sides. Do not roll it. Applying pressure with fingers, make dents in it. Now add your favourite toppings. I made it two different shapes - round and square.
- Brush with more of Olive Oil. Let it prove again for the second time for about an hour. After done, it is all set for baking. Bake in a preheated oven on 200° for 20-25 minutes. Brush with more of Olive Oil or Butter on top. Slice into squares and enjoy alongside Soups, Pastas, etc. Yum!
- Enjoy! It tastes awesome when served hot.
