Hi Amy you do need to use a container or the dough will seep through the holes in the Varoma basket.  Perhaps Uni has a Varoma shaped dish / bowl.  I use a Falcon Enamelware pudding basin (not sure if you can get them in Australia), but they are the sort of basin you would cook a Christmas pudding in.  If your basin is deep and small (as mine is), make sure you oil the Varoma lid as the dough will rise to the lid and you don't want it sticking.

I would be a good idea though if the people at Voerwerk would come up with a bowl especially designed for the Varoma basket??

It is now 1:10 am and bread is steaming, but again I feel the need for a wider bowl as even half way through steaming, the dough has already touched the Varoma lid :-(  I think it is a case of taking Varoma and lid to the hardware shop and finding a wider bowl to fit :-(

Lol fair enough Uni ;)
He should know not to give you too many thumbs down though. He might not get fed otherwise :-))

You are going to toast it though aren't you Uni?  It is really nice toasted, not sure about as is - didn't even bother to try mine that way.

Looks good Uni but like you, I wouldn't eat it as dislike sweet things, especially sweet bread.  I wonder if it will work with cheese, might give it a go
