Yes it was dense but not as hard as I thought it might be.<br /> However it was very very filling, could only eat 1 slice! Only problem was removing loaf even though I oiled tin well, but it did not stick, so I was very happy with that.<br /><br />Sorry about not taking any photos but I finished baking after 12 midnight and I was too tired and next day it was already sliced by the time I came down for breakfast!<br />But I def intend baking it again and hope not to forget this time. <br /><br />Even my daughter-in-law who's from New Zealand enjoyed it.<br /><br />Thanks again Namita for feedback and tips,<br /><br />P.S.I really enjoy reading about the lovely place you stay <br />in and your photos are amazing too.<br />God willing I might be able to visit<br />your "Heaven On Earth" one day!<br /><br />Warmest regards and love, Mrs Singh Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4420420054076431755.post-36692968215900115532014-12-11T14:38:17.719+05:302014-12-11T14:38:17.719+05:30Hello Mrs Singh, I would suggest that you try out ...Hello Mrs Singh, I would suggest that you try out no knead bread recipe. This one is a simple, fool proof recipe. I am sure that you will be happy with the results. I use brands like Pillsbury and Aashirvad for my breads. The breads are dense and crumbly. They are not very spongy but definitely not hard. I guess the magic lies in kneading for a very long time with the right quantity of water. You may also add vital gluten to the dough. I don't not add it to my breads though. No knead bread recipe gives a very soft and spongy bread. Let me know the results with pictures if possible.

Don't you find the bread very heavy? However it looks very light in your picture. Could the atta flour be lighter in India?<br /><br />I tried another recipe once and it was like a Brick!! Difficult to eat, and not wanting to waste it, I turned it into breadcrumbs. <br /><br />Thanks for any feedback<br />Mrs Singh, Malaysia<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4420420054076431755.post-23701510850529370532014-12-01T12:41:53.807+05:302014-12-01T12:41:53.807+05:30Sure Anandi, I will try to click pics of every ste...Sure Anandi, I will try to click pics of every step next time.

I forgot that temperatures are dropping. The dough took so long to rise in the bowl. Now it is the loaf tin and it hasn't risen as yet. Waiting for it to rise, so that I can have my first whole wheat loaf. The only change I made to this recipe was that I added wheat bran to it. Hope it comes out well and will update you about it. Thanks for a lovely and simple recipe once again. Just one request. Next time, if possible, could you take step by step pix to help understand how the dough looks like when mixed?

Your bird photos are amazing Namita and finding a loaf of bread that can be cobbled together in no time and that you don't have to fuss over is an amazing thing. We are just about to hit our summer running and as we spend a lot of time in the garden, coming in at night and facing a big baking spree after all of that hard work isn't my idea of rest and relaxation so something like this will be a great addition to our summer meals. Thank you for sharing this simple, quick, obviously delicious bread :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
