In a bowl, mix lukewarm water, yeast, and sugar. Let it sit for 5-10 minutes until it becomes foamy.
In a large mixing bowl, combine flour and salt.
Add the yeast mixture and olive oil to the flour. Mix until a dough forms.
Knead the dough on a lightly floured surface for about 8-10 minutes, until smooth and elastic.
Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover with a towel, and let it rise for 1 hour, or until doubled in size.
2. Make the Garlic Herb Filling:
In a small bowl, mix minced garlic, olive oil, parsley, oregano, salt, and pepper.
Set aside to allow the flavors to blend.
3. Shape and Fill the Bread:
Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
Once the dough has risen, punch it down and roll it out into a rectangle (about ½ inch thick).
Brush the garlic herb mixture evenly over the dough.
Optional: Sprinkle shredded cheese over the filling for an extra savory touch.
Roll the dough like a jelly roll, then shape it into a loaf or twist into a rustic shape.
Place it on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
4. Bake the Bread:
Brush the top with a little olive oil.
Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the bread is golden brown and sounds hollow when tapped.
Let it cool slightly before slicing.
