### Ingredients

 * 7 grams Instant yeast-1 sachet
 * 1 tsp Sugar
 * 125 grams Wholemeal flour
 * 100 grams Plain flour
 * 1 Egg-beaten
 * 1 tbsp Olive oil
 * 6 tbsp Parmesan-grated
 * 150 millilitre Water-warm

[[

### Directions

 * Dissolve the yeast and sugar in a small bowl with 4 tablespoons of the warm water.
 * Leave to stand for about 5 minutes- it should start to froth.
 * Put the flour in a large bowl. Add the yeast liquid, oil and remaining warm water.
 * Mix to a soft dough, adding more water if necessary.
 * Knead the dough on a lightly floured surface for about 10 minutes until smooth
   and springy.
 * Put the dough into a mildly oiled bowl and cover with plastic wrap.
 * Leave the dough to rise in a warm place for about an hour, or until doubled in
   size.
 * Knead the dough again for about 1 minute.
 * Divide the dough into 20 equal pieces.
 * Roll each piece into a 20cm long sausage shape.
 * Place breadsticks on a lined baking tray, leaving a little space between each
   one.
 * Brush the breadsticks with the egg and sprinkle with cheese.
 * Bake at 150 degrees: 18-20 minutes will result in soft cheesy breadsticks and
   30-35 minutes will result in crispy cheesy breadsticks.
 * Cool on a wire rack.
 * Store in an airtight container.
