With Alex Goh straight dough bread recipe I modify by vary the liquid used to bake different flavour of bread. Here are some flavours I have try. The quantity and type of flour used are same. The different are on the amount of liquid, instant yeast and type of liquid used. I’m glad still turn out great (at least stay soft the 2nd day).

Spinach Sausage Loaf Bread

Adapted and modified from The World of Bread, Alex Goh cookbook
(yield 2 loafs)
Spinach Sausage Loaf Bread
Ingredients:
(A)
320g bread flour
80g all-purpose flour
20g sugar
1 teaspoon salt
1½ teaspoons instant yeast

(B)
1 egg
150ml water

(C)
30g butter (replace with vegetable oil)

(D) Sausage cheese filling
2 sausages (diced)
1 onion (finely diced)
25g shredded cheddar cheese
*mix together and set aside

1-2 tablespoons vegetable oil for brushing
1 egg for egg wash

Methods:
1. Place all ingredients (A) into mixing bowl. Follow by (B) and knead to form dough.

2. Add butter/oil into the dough and continue knead till can be stretched to form a "window panel". Shape the dough into round and place into a lightly oiled bowl. Cover and rest for 1 hour and 15 minutes or until double in size.

3. De-gas dough and transfer on a lightly floured surface. Divide the dough into 2 portions.
a) Loaf bread
-Shape one of the portions into round and set aside to rest for 10 minutes. Roll out the dough into rectangle shape with rolling pin. Then, roll up like swiss roll. Place into lined or lightly oiled baking tin (I’m using L21 cm x W10 cm x H11 cm sandwich tin).

 b) Sausage loaf (refer here for steps)
-Divide the other portion into 4 (about 90g each). Shape into round and leave to rest for 10 minutes. Roll out into round and wrap ¼ of the sausage cheese filling into ball. Repeat the same for the rest.
-Slightly flatten the ball with hand. Brush some oil on surface. Cover the oiled dough with the other flatten ball. Repeat the same for the other balls. It will give you 2 sets of stacking dough.

-Roll out the stacked dough into rectangle shape (the length should be about length of baking pan). Brush the rectangle surface with oil, roll up like a swiss roll. Repeat the same for the other dough.
-With a scraper, cut each roll into 6 equal triangles as shown. Then transfer into lined/ oiled baking pan. Make sure the sealing side is facing down.

4. Leave to prove for about 45 minutes or until double in size. Apply egg wash. Bake in preheated oven at 170C for 30 minutes. Cover with aluminium foil if the colour brown too fast.
* Do adjust according to your oven temperature.

5. Remove the bread immediately from baking tin and leave to cool completely on a wire rack. While is hot brush the surface with some butter. This will give you shine looking bread and yield soft crust.
