Method
  1. Combine yeast, sugar and water in a small bowl. Stir then leave it until foamy.
  2. Place flour and salt in a large bowl and make a well in the centre.
  3. Add the yeast mixture and oil to the flour and mix together to make a doughy ball.
  4. Tip the dough out onto the bench and knead for 4 to 5 minutes until it is smooth.
  5. Place dough in a large lightly-oiled bowl and cover with a tea towel or plastic wrap.
  6. Leave dough in a warm place for 30 to 40 minutes until doubled in size.
  7. Preheat the oven to 200 degrees Celsius.
  8. Sprinkle a small amount of flour on the bench and roll the dough out into a rectangle - about 40 centimetres by 25 centimetres.
  9. Spread with Marmite or Vegemite and sprinkle on the cheese. Roll up from the longest side to create a log.
  10. Cut log into 12 even slices and lie them flat (but not touching) on a greased baking tray.
  11. Bake for 12 to 15 minutes until golden and puffed.
Notes

For a change, make these with cheese and your favourite relish or chutney.
