Moroccan Spicy Bread Recipe

I use this recipe on special occasions to surprise my
friends with this tasty Moroccan bread.

Ingredients:
 
  1½ cups tepid water  
  1¼ pounds white flour
  1 Tbsp active dry yeast
  1 Tsp sea-salt
  ¼ cup olive oil
  1 Tbsp oreganor
  1 Tsp thyme
  1 Tsp rosemary, chopped
  ½ cup green onion, chopped
 
Directions:

  1.  Put flour and yeast in a large bowl. Add 1 Tbsp olive oil
      and oregano.

  2.  Add water and knead well. Make sure that the dough
       becomes soft and firm, but not too sticky.

  3.  Let the dough rise for 1 hour then add the salt. Knead
      again and let dough rise for 40 minutes.

  4.  Flatten the dough into a rectangle about 12 inches by
       8 inches. Pour olive oil on the dough and carefully spread
       it over the dough. Then sprinkle on other spices and green onion.
 
  5.  Roll up the dough into a long cylindrical shape.

  6.  Slice the dough into 1¼ inch slices and put them in a greased baking tray
       with the toping pointing upward.

  7.  Cover the slices and let them rise for 20 minutes.

  8.  Preheat oven to and insert the baking tray into an oven preheated to 400° F.
      When the crust is golden-brown it's ready (about 25-30 minutes)
