Ingredients
  

  • 3 cups plain flour
  • 1 cup water Warm
  • 1 tbsp yeast Dry Active
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 2 sugar tbps
  • 2 to 3 olive oil tbps
  • 1 plus 1 tsps egg + milk for basting the buns before baking

For the garlic filling

  • 50 grams salted butter
  • 6 to 7 garlic finely chopped
  • 3 tbps coriander leaves chopped
  • 1/2 tsp chilli flakes
  • 1/2 tsp white pepper

Instructions
 

  • Mix warm water, sugar and yeast together and leave aside for 5 minutes till it looks a little frothy. That's when the yeast has been activated and is ready to use.
  • Mix the above starter with dough and knead lightly till everything comes together as a dough. No need to over knead it.
  • Add oil to it and knead for another 5 minutes till it starts springing back.
  • Keep the dough for resting covered by cling film for about 30-45 mins till it almost doubles depending on the weather.
  • While the dough is proofing you can make the garlic spread ready by mixing all the ingredients together at room temperature.
  • After its doubled in size, knock down to remove the air and roll in to a half an inch thickness sheet. Use dry flour to prevent it from sticking.
  • Apply the garlic filling/spread evenly on the dough and roll the dough from one end to another.
  • Using a knife or a thread (I feel thread results in a cleaner cut) cut it into 8-10 rolls of equal size.
  • Line them in a loaf pan, spread the left over garlic spread on top and sprinkle the sesame seeds on top.
  • Leave it for proofing again for 30 mins or so.
  • Apply egg wash (optional) and bake it in a preheated oven at 180C for about 20-25 mins.
  • Pull them apart and eat fresh and warm.
