Carrot and sesame sandwich bread (Dan Lepard)

Another one of Dan's excellent breads....
I barely needed any kneading for this!  I just love Dan's methods..:)

love the generous seeds here

     Recipe: Dan Lepard ( The Guardian)
     Ingredients (one large loaf)
     175g carrot
     150ml warm water
     100ml orange juice, at room temperature
     7g sachet fast-action yeast
     25ml olive oil, plus more for kneading
     450g strong white flour
     50g wholemeal or spelt flour
     2 tsp salt
     50g black or white sesame seeds, plus extra to finish

main ingredients

a dough that is so easy to manage, thanks to the orange juice :)

roll it up tightly

ready to be baked

     Method
     1.  Peel and grate carrots, place them in a bowl. Add in warm water and orange juice.

     2.  Stir in the yeast, leave 5 minutes till dissolved, then add the oil, flours , salt and seeds, mix well to a firm dough.  Leave and cover dough for 10 minutes.

     3.  Gently knead for 10 seconds. Cover and leave for about an hour, or until risen by half.

     4.  Using a large loaf tin, line the base and sides with non-stick baking paper.  Oil the working surface,  pat the dough into an oblong shape. Roll it tightly like a scroll, squeeze the ends together as you pick it up and lower it, seam-side down, into the tin.  Cover and leave for about an hour.

     5.  Pre-heat over to 200C.  Using a pastry brush, lightly wet the top of the dough, sprinkle thickly with sesame seeds. Cut a deep slash down the middle and bake for about 50 minutes.

note: I placed a pan filled with boiling water at the bottom level of the oven during baking.
