Ingredients

Preparation

  1. In a cup, dissolve the yeast in 3 tablespoons of lukewarm water.
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine the flour and salt. Make a well in the center and pour in the yeast and 10 cl of lukewarm water.
  3. Knead the dough on a floured work surface until it becomes smooth. Leave to rise for 3 hours at room temperature.
  4. Remove the butter from the refrigerator to soften. Butter a baking pan.
  5. Once the dough has tripled in volume, place it on the work surface and shape it into a square about 1 cm thick.
  6. Spread butter and sprinkle sugar up to 3 cm from the edges.
  7. Fold the dough into thirds. Roll out very thinly with a rolling pin. Fold into thirds again. Roll out into a round shape.
  8. Place the dough in the pan and let rest for 30 minutes.
  9. Preheat oven to 210°C (gas mark 7).
  10. Bake for 35 minutes. After 10 minutes, baste the cake every 5 minutes with the butter that will melt during baking.
  11. Let rest for 15 minutes before removing from the pan. Sprinkle with 3 tablespoons of sugar. Serve warm.
