    Preparation:
    Score the bread in a criss-cross pattern, making cuts approximately 5 cm apart, taking care not to slice all the way through to the bottom. Place torn pieces of mozzarella into the gaps.
    Wrap the bread in aluminium foil and place it in a preheated oven at 180°C for 8–10 minutes. After this time, uncover the top of the bread and bake for a further 5 minutes.
    Remove from the oven, transfer to a plate, sprinkle with black sesame seeds and serve with the dip for dipping.

Tip: If you prefer lighter version, instead of olive oil use natural yogurt.
