Preparation
- For the dough balls, mix together the flour, yeast, and salt in a large bowl.
- Make a well in the middle and pour in the water plus 1 tablespoon of the olive oil.
- Knead the dough for 7-8 minutes until springy to the touch and a smooth soft dough has formed.
- Wipe a bowl with the remaining olive oil, place the dough inside and cover with cling film.
- Leave to rest for 1 hour.
- On a baking tray lined with greaseproof paper, place the lid of the camembert in the middle.
- Roll the dough into balls and dot around the lid to make a wreath-shape.
- Cover and leave to rest for 30 minutes.
- Pre-heat the oven to 180°C (350°F).
- Mix the butter, garlic, and parsley together and coat over the dough balls.
- Sprinkle on some salt over the dough balls. Replace the lid with the camembert and sprinkle the rosemary and thyme over the camembert.
- Bake for 15 minutes.
- Garnish with the pomegranate seeds and rosemary sprigs.
