Rose Rolls

Rose Rolls, yeah I know some of you pronounce it Rolls Royce, lol,, is that pretty snack that you might hate to eat because of how cool it looks, but then, when you know what it tastes like, you will hate not to eat them. Rose Rolls is that snack that kids just love to have at anytime. Tired of Muffins or cupcakes, Then you can try out the rose rolls. Here is how Bas made it:

Ingredients

4 (four) cups all purpose/plain flour

1 (one) table spoon of instant yeast

2 (two) table spoon of powdered milk

1(one) table spoon of salt

4 table spoon of oil

egg 1 (plus 1 for glazing)

1 (one) table spoon of castor/grinded sugar

Directions

• In a bowl mix the following ingredients together: 4 (four) cups flour, 1 (one) table spoon salt, 1 (one) table spoon of castor sugar, 2 table spoon of milk powder, 1 (one) table spoon of yeast, 4 (four) table spoon of oil and 1 (one) egg, knead to a medium soft dough with slightly warm water, leave to rise for 1 hour. Divide the dough into 15-16 sections and shape them into neat balls.

• Now you can start shaping the Roses. Roll out each ball to about 4″ (four) diameter. Brush a bit of butter on the circle of dough. Make 4 (four) diagonal slits, leaving the center intact. Add your filling in the center. Take one of the sections and cover the side of the filling with it. Take the opposite side’s section and cover the other side of the filling with it. Repeat with the two last sections, pinching the dough on the side to seal it. Repeat until all rose-rolls are ready.

• Place the prepared rolls on a greased tray. Pre-heat your oven to 180 C. Brush each rose gently with egg yolk mixed with a tsp. of milk. Sprinkle with sesame seeds and bake for about 15-20 minutes or until tops are golden and rolls are ready.

• Remove and brush them with melted butter. Keep them covered until time of serving so they stay soft.

These can be served as it is, with a chutney of choice, or as an accompaniment with any meal or soup.

Enjoy! :)
