• Oil a baking tray or line it with non-stick baking paper. Knead the dough for about a minute and then use your hands to press it flat onto the baking tray. Cover with cling film (as long as there is space for the dough to rise) or put it in a plastic bag and leave to rise for another hour.
• Preheat the oven to 220°c (200°c fan).
• Crush the garlic clove and mix it into a tablespoon of extra virgin olive oil. Brush it over the focaccia. Use the end of a wooden spoon to make indentations in the dough.
