Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, mix the semolina, flour, sugar, salt, cardamom and yeast.
  2. Add the melted butter and the egg, then gradually pour in the warm water while kneading until you have a soft dough.
  3. Knead for 8 minutes, then cover and let rise in a warm place for 1 hour, until doubled in size.
  4. Knock back the dough, shape it into a large ball and place it in a buttered loaf tin.
  5. Let it rise again for 30 minutes.
  6. Bake at 180°C for 30 to 35 minutes, until the top is golden and a knife inserted in the centre comes out dry.
  7. Let it cool slightly before turning out and slicing.

Variations and tips

Vanilla version. Add a teaspoon of vanilla extract with the egg for a rounder flavour.
