SAMPLE RECIPE
Spinach, Pumpkin, Cumin & Feta Damper
(pictured)
This is an old favourite of mine but with a new twist – toasted cumin
seeds – to create a damper packed full of flavour. You can bake damper in a
barbecue: just raise the baking tray a few centimetres above the grill so the
damper doesn’t burn on the bottom.
Makes 3 damper loaves
500g strong bread flour
5g salt
40g baking powder
65g unsalted butter, softened
good pinch of freshly ground black pepper
10g cumin seeds, lightly toasted
350ml whole milk, tepid
120g feta, roughly cubed
100g spinach, washed, dried and roughly chopped
100g firm cooked pumpkin, cubed
Sift flour, salt, and baking powder into a large mixing bowl. Add butter and, using your fingertips, rub butter into dry ingredients until mixture resembles breadcrumbs. Toss black pepper and cumin seeds through. Make a large well in the mixture and slowly add the milk into the well. Gently combine ingredients by hand, taking care not to over-mix.
Once dough is almost fully combined, but still has some wet and floury patches throughout, add the feta, spinach and pumpkin. Fold and lift into the dough to give a rough dough mass. Do not over-mix dough at this stage as it would result in a tough damper.
Tip dough out onto work surface and divide into three equal parts. Very lightly mould each piece into a round shape and place smooth side up on a baking tray lined with baking paper. Gently flatten each dough piece to a 15cm-diameter circle, using the palm of your hand. Lightly dust with flour, then leave to rest in a cool place for 15 minutes.
Using a large knife or dough scraper, score each dough piece into quarters, cutting three-quarters of the way through the dough. Bake in a preheated 220–230ºC oven for 18–25 minutes, depending on size. Do not over-bake as this will result in a dry damper. Remove from oven and place on a wire rack to cool.
