4
Form the dough into a ball and place into a deep dish.
Cover with a damp cloth and leave to rest for 45 minutes at room temperature and away from draughts.
5
Divide the dough into 4 or 6 pieces, depending on the size of polar bread you would like, by rolling it out on a floured work surface to create circles with a diameter a little larger than a bowl.
6
Place a bowl upside down on each piece of dough and remove the excess dough with a sharp kitchen knife. Prick the dough circles with a fork and leave them to rest for 25 minutes under a dry cloth, at room temperature and away from draughts.
7
Bake the polar breads one at a time over low heat in a lightly oiled pan. They will only need a few minutes on each side.
The polar breads are cooked when they have puffed up and are starting to turn a golden brown.
