In a bowl, add 4 cups of all-purpose flour.

Add 1 tablespoon of brown sugar to the flour.

Add 1 teaspoon of salt to the flour.

Open the pack of yeast and add 1 tablespoon to the bowl.

Mix the dry ingredients together.

Cut the butter into smaller pieces and add it to the flour mixture.

Use your hands to work the butter into the flour mixture.

Start adding lukewarm water gradually, stirring with a spoon.

Once mixed, use your hands to knead the dough, ensuring your hands are clean.

Transfer the dough to a floured surface and knead for about 7 to 10 minutes.

Return the kneaded dough to the bowl and cover with a kitchen towel.

Let the dough rise for about 45 minutes until it doubles in size.

After 45 minutes, flour the surface again and knead the dough lightly.

Shape the dough into pieces, rolling and stretching them.

Place the shaped dough on a tray, spaced out for rising.

Cover the shaped dough with a kitchen towel and let it rise for another 20 to 25 minutes.

Preheat the oven and bake the bread for 20 to 25 minutes.

Check the bread for doneness; it should be soft with a nice crust.
