Chef's tip

BREAD/BRIOCHE is a 2min programme. It runs for 1min at speed 5, pauses and you will need to press AUTO to continue the programme. The 2nd minute runs at speed 9. Be sure the bread dough is covered while proving. It prevents the surface drying out, which could retard the rise.

RECIPE STEPS
1Peel the beetroot and add to the metal bowl. Run EXPERT and PULSE until the beetroot has been roughly chopped. Press STOP then add the remaining ingredients.
  • 2 small raw beetroots

  • 1 tsp salt
  • 300 ml water

2Run BREAD/BRIOCHE. Remove the dough from the metal bowl, into a large bowl, cover and leave to rise for 60mins.
