Preparation Steps
- 1
Prepare the Dough
In a large mixing bowl, combine warm water, sugar, and active dry yeast. Let it sit for about 5-10 minutes until it becomes frothy. Add olive oil, salt, and flour gradually, mixing until a dough forms.
- 2
Knead the Dough
Turn the dough onto a floured surface and knead for about 8-10 minutes until smooth and elastic. Place in a greased bowl, cover with a cloth, and let it rise in a warm place for 1 hour or until doubled in size.

Prepare the Filling
In a bowl, mix cooked crumbled sausage, mozzarella cheese, and dried Italian herbs.

Assemble the Bread
Once the dough has risen, punch it down and roll it out into a rectangle. Spread the sausage and cheese mixture evenly over the dough. Roll the dough tightly into a log and pinch the edges to seal.
- 5
Bake the Bread
Place the rolled dough seam-side down on a greased baking sheet. Brush with beaten egg for a golden finish. Let it rise again for 30 minutes. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and bake for 25-30 minutes or until golden brown.

Cool and Serve
Once baked, remove the bread from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before slicing. Serve warm.
