Method
Step 1 of 5
Place 1 1/2 cups warm water in a jug, sprinkle over yeast and sugar, then stir until dissolved. Set aside for 5 minutes or until frothy.
Step 2 of 5
Combine flour, parmesan and salt in a bowl. Make a well in centre and add yeast mixture. Using a butter knife, stir until combined, then use your hands to bring dough together.
Step 3 of 5
Turn onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 10 minutes or until smooth and elastic. Grease a large bowl with 1 tbs oil, then place dough in bowl and cover with a clean damp tea towel. Set aside in a warm, draught-free place for 1 hour or until doubled in size.
Step 4 of 5
Grease base and sides of a 15 x 30cm (5cm deep) baking tray. Punch down centre of dough with your fist. Turn onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 2 minutes or until the dough is smooth. Press into pan and cover with a clean damp tea towel. Set aside in a warm, draught-free place for 1 hour or until doubled in size.
Step 5 of 5
Preheat oven to 240°C/220°C fan-forced. Using fingertips, press dimples into dough. Combine garlic, thyme and remaining oil in a small bowl, then spoon over dough and season with pepper. Bake for 20 minutes or until golden and focaccia sounds hollow when tapped. Cool in pan for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool slightly. Season extra oil with pepper and serve with focaccia.
