Preparation:
To make the yeast dough, gently warm the milk, butter and water, then add the yeast.
In another bowl, mix the flour, sugar and salt. Add the liquid mixture to the dry ingredients and knead everything into a smooth dough for 5-10 minutes. Divide the dough in half, add the herb mixture and a pinch of green food colouring to one half. Then knead again until everything is well combined. Now cover both halves of the dough and leave to rise for about an hour. Meanwhile, prepare the filling. Melt the butter and mix with the herbs, salt and pepper, the finely chopped garlic clove and the egg.
Knead the dough again briefly and roll out to approx. 20 x 25 cm each. Spread both halves with the filling and sprinkle with the grated Gouda. Then place one on top of the other and roll up from the short side. Carefully place the dough roll in the loaf pan and leave to rise again for 30 minutes. Then bake in a preheated oven at 200 °C top/bottom heat for 35-40 minutes.
