Masala Buns
Ingredients:
all purpose flour - 2 cup
turmeric powder - 1/2 tsp
butter - 2 tbsp
sugar - 2 tsp
warm milk - 1/2 cup
fresh yeast - 20 gm
egg - 1, lightly beaten
warm water - 1/2 cup, approx
oil - 2 tbsp
cumin seeds - 1 tsp
green chili - 1 tsp, minced
curry leaves - 2 tbsp, shredded
coriander leaves - 2 tbsp, chopped
salt - 1/2 tsp
Method:
- Combine flour with salt and turmeric powder. Rub in the butter.
- Dissolve sugar in warm (not hot) milk . Mix in the yeast.
- Add the yeast mixture and egg to the flour mixture.
- Add enough warm water to make very soft dough.
- Knead the dough very well till it is smooth, shiny and elastic.
- Keep the dough covered in a lightly greased bowl, till it rises to double its volume.
- (The rising time will depend on the room temperature.)
- Meanwhile, heat the oil in a small fry pan and add cumin seeds.
- When they splutter, add green chili, curry leaves and coriander.
- Fry for few seconds and remove from fire. Allow to cool.
- Knead the risen dough lightly and roll out to a 1.5 cm thick sheet.
- Sprinkle the fried ingredients evenly over it.
- Roll up the sheet (like Swiss roll) and cut into 3cm thick slices.
- Flatten the slices slightly and place well apart on a greased baking tray.
- Sprinkle lightly with warm water and leave aside till they double in volume.
- Meanwhile, heat the oven to 200 C.
- Place the risen buns in oven and bake till done, about 12-15 minutes.
