Bagels

I've only recently begun to find bagels down here in South Africa. I remember a decade ago when I first landed in LA after a long stay in Australia. I bought a smoothie and a bagel and sat in a hotel room eating them and watching friends - all things I hadn't had for 6 months. I've been using this recipe on and off since!

Ingredients


Preparation

Mix the flour, sugar, salt & yeast in a bowl. Make a well in the centre of the flour & tip in half the milk. Stir it in gradually, then add more (you may not need all the milk) to make a non-sticky dough.

Turn the dough out onto a floured surface & knead for a good 5-10 mins until the dough is smooth. Shape into a ball, score a cross in the top, cover with a cloth & allow to prove for about 20 mins.

In the meantime, put a large pan of water on to boil & preheat the oven to 200C & grease a baking tray.

Once the dough has risen a little bit, shape the dough into bagels. (The dough will rise up to double during cooking.)

1 or 2 at a time, submerge the bagels into the boiling water for about 30 seconds, remove, shake off excess water & cook all in the oven for about 20 mins.
