Mix on low speed until well combined now add a drizzle of canola oil and mix until smooth and silky , about 10 minutes . Shape the dough into a round and coat with a little extra oil and place in a clean bowl , cover with cling wrap and let rise till doubled in size . Now turn out onto a clean work surface covered with plenty of flour , roll out to 1/2 inch thick . Dust the top evenly with flour and then flip and dust the underside . Cut into strips about 1/2 inch wide , brush the tops with oil and sprinkle lightly with a mixture of flaky sea salt , cracked black pepper , poppy seeds , smoked paprika , rosemary leaves and finely grated parmesan cheese . Oil and line an oven tray with baking paper , place the strips on the baking tray you can curl the sticks if you like .
