Add about 1/2 cup of the water to a bowl and stir with the yeast and sugar. Set to one side for 10 minutes.

Add remaining water and the remaining ingredients and stir till evenly combined. Cover and let rise again for 30 minutes.
Grease two loaf tins and dust lightly with flour. Divide dough among the tins and push it down with wet hands so it fills the tin. Dust with flour and leave to rise for 15 minutes.
Preheat oven to 225 C / Gas 7. Place a roasting tin filled with water on the lowest oven shelf and bake breads till browned and the underside sounds hollow, about 1 hour.
