CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIE RECIPE WITHOUT SHORTENING

I haven't got FTP access to my domain on this computer so I'll put the recipe here. I saw this on the tv on Saturday so decided to make it for our picnic at the last minute. Turned out good! I'll write it with the ingredients Jamie Oliver used and then tell you what I used instead, I can reveal that it was a big success! Looks like a lot of food - and it is. It is a proper group picnic meal, made it, wrapped it in foil and sliced it on site. Sort of like a sandwich pie! I have uploaded 2 'sliced' pics too.

Stuffed Bread Rings (Don't know what else to call them)

Bread
1kg Strong White Bread Flour
Handful Salt
Handful Sugar
3 x packet dried yeast
Pint of tepid water

Savoury Filling
Parma Ham
Boiled Eggs
Mozerella
Grated Parmesan
Sundried tomatoes
Fresh Basil

Decoration
Rosemary Sprigs

Sweet Filling
Jar of Nutella
2 Bananas
Chopped Hazelnuts

Preheat oven to 200C

1. Put all dry bread ingredients in a large bowl. Add water and stir until all the water is mixed in.

2. Turn out onto surface (there's enough non-mixed flour to stop it all sticking) and knead for 10 mins or so until it's all togater and like a proper bread dough!

3. Set one half aside for sweet filling.

4. Roll dough out into a big rectangle on floured surface - sort of tea-towel size. Lay it out 'portrait'.

5. A couple of inches in from the top edge, layer all your savoury fillings evenly along the whole length of the dough.

6. bring the top edge of dough over the fillings and continue to roll it towards you so you have a long filled bread swiss roll.

7. Bring the dough round into a ring and tuck one end into the other, squeezing it all together. Pop on a floured baking tray, rub olive oil into the top and decorate with rosemary sprigs.

8. Leave to rest whilst you make the sweet one.

9. Roll out second half of dough as before, perhaps a little thinner if you can but it's quite springy!

10. Spread Nutella over the whole of the dough, leaving a gap on bottom edge to allow for seepage when rolled.

11. Sprinkle with chopped banana and hazelnuts.

12. Roll as before and twist round into a spiral, tucking end underneath.Rub top with olive oil and put on tray (can be the same tray as savoury bread).

13. Put both in oven for about 35 minutes, until golden and looking like cooked bread.

My fillings
For various reasons I didn't use the same fillings as Jamie. It all seems very flexible. I've already planned a greek one with feta and olives and a sweet one using honey instead of chocolate :)

Savoury
Cooked Chicken breast (with a Mexican seasoning I think)
Mozzerella
Sprinkle of grated cheddar. Really not very much.
Yellow Pepper
Sundried Tomatoes
Fresh Basil

Sweet
Nutella
Raspberries
1 chopped pear
