Quick and easy stretchy Ciabatta

• 250g/9oz Italian type '00' bread flour (waitrose sells this flour, however if you cant find it a strong white bread flour will do)
• 190ml/7fl oz water
• 15g/½oz yeast
  
  
  Flour in bowl, make a small well add water gradually whilst mixing, add yeast and kneed well. 
  stretch into long sausage shape or small rolls, cover & place in a warm place for approx 20 mins.
  
  
  uncover 
  
  
  like most bread this is when you will kneed again to take out the bubbles of air formed from the yeast fermenting, however for ciabatta you want it full of light fluffy bubbles. 
  
  
  Bake for 20 mins (until golden brown) dust with flour, salt, pepper, drizzle with olive oil and add chopped chives to make it look all pretty!!!!! 
  
  
  
  
  serve with butter while warm!
