Plaited bread

500 g white flour

1 tsp sugar

½ yeast cube

250 ml milk

lukewarm

Cut the butter into small cubes and crumble the yeast. Mix all the ingredients together in a mixing bowl, then knead into a smooth dough. Place the dough in a bowl, cover with a damp cloth and allow to proof at room temperature for 1–2 hours until double in volume.
