Take a bowl and add warm water to it along with sugar. Give a gentle mix. Make sure that water is not hot. You may check with a finger dip test. If you can dip your finger comfortably and feel the warmth of water, its good enough.
Add dry yeast. and cover it for 5-10 min.
You will notice a froth on yeast-water mixture after sometime. Its perfectly fine to have a frothy mixture. It indicates that we can move ahead.
Take another bowl and add half of wheat flour. We will use half first and then add other half later.
Add desi ghee and salt to the wheat flour.
Add yeast water mixture slowly to the wheat flour. Make sure to mix water and flour in batches and not at one go.
Mix it well and add more wheat flour. Add water-yeast mixture as needed. The dough would be sticky and its okay. But it should not be very hard or very loose. If you feel its loose, add little more of wheat flour. I have used spatula to give a good mix.
Keep mixing well the dough. Now you can mix it on the kitchen board as well.
Apply olive oil to an empty bowl and keep the dough in it covered with a cloth or lid. Keep it near warm place to give it first rise.
After 30 min, you shall notice that the dough has almost doubled up.
Punch it and release the air and knead again for 5 min. It would still be sticky. You may apply oil on you hands to avoid it sticking on you hands. Cover it again for second rise for 1-2 hours.
After 2 hours, it would be risen nicely as shown.
In the mean time, you can chop the vegetables in desired shapes for making your garden on focaccia.
Now we can transfer the dough to the utensil in which we wish to bake it. Coat the utensil with olive oil. Gently transfer the dough. It wont stretch too much as its wheat flour.
You may stretch it to cover the whole pan. Make the garden of your focaccia. Add olive oil at the top once the vegetables are placed.
Bake it in pre-heated OTG (toaster oven) at 180 °C for about 10-15 min. Pls Note if you are using oven, the baking time would increase and it might take 20-25 min to bake this bread.
It looks so majestic. It has been baked properly and once it cools off, it would leave the sides too.
Your focaccia bread is ready. Dip in butter and enjoy!!
