Method
Step 1
For the Tomato dough - Add flour, yeast, salt, sugar, tomato paste and paprika to a mixer with a dough hook, add in water and oil and knead for 5 minutes. Or alternatively, knead by hand for 10 minutes. Oil a bowl and put the dough in it covered to prove for 45 minutes
Step 2
For the Spinach dough - Add flour, yeast, salt, sugar and spinach to a dough mixer, add in water and oil and knead for 5 minutes (dough mixer) or 10 minutes (by hand). Oil a bowl and put the dough in it covered to prove for 45 minutes.
Step 3
For the Turmeric dough - Add flour, yeast, salt, sugar and turmeric to a dough mixer, add in water and oil and knead for 5 minutes (dough mixer) or 10 minutes (by hand). Oil a bowl and put the dough in it covered to prove for 45 minutes.
Step 4
Divide the dough into three equal pieces and roll to form three even 'sausage' shapes. Arrange the sausages like an arrow pointing upwards, the tips of all three forming a point. Start to plait, right strand over the middle, then left over the middle, and onwards. Don’t pull too tight!
Step 5
Once the strands of dough have been plaited together, tuck the ends underneath the dough to hold in place.
Step 6
Place the dough onto a floured baking sheet and allow the dough to prove for a further 45 minutes covered.
Step 7
Preheat your oven to 200°C, fan 180°C, gas mark 6 & bake for 45 minutes.
