1. Preheat oven to 220°C fan forced.
2. Sift flour into a large bowl. Combine yeast, honey and warm milk in a jug, whisk to combine. Pour mixture into flour, add salt and fennel seeds, mix into a dough. Turn out onto a lightly floured board or bench and knead for 3-4 minutes until dough is soft and elastic and no longer sticky. Place in a lightly greased bowl, cover and set aside to prove for 20 minutes.
3. Divide dough into 5-6 balls, roll out each out to 2cm-thick, approximately 12-14 cm diameter round. Use your thumb to press dimples into the dough. Brush the tops with egg.
4. Place on a baking tray sprinkled with semolina. Bake for 10-15 minutes or until golden and cooked through.
