Savory Buns



Ingredients:
  • Maida/All purpose flour 1 cup
  • Wheat flour 1/2 cup
  • Instant yeast 1 tbsp
  • Milk 1/4 cup(+1 tbsp if needed)
  • Water 1/4 cup(+1 tbsp if needed)
  • oil 1/8 cup
  • Sugar 1/2 tbsp
  • Salt 3/4 tsp
  • Chopped garlic 1 tbsp
  • Chopped coriander 1 & 1/2 tbsp
  • Chili flakes 1 tbsp

Method:
1. Sieve the flours together in a large bowl and make a dent in the center. Heat the milk and water little (Luke warm) and add sugar, yeast to it and mix well to dissolve yeast completely.
2. Pour this mixture in the dent, add olive oil, salt, chopped garlic, coriander and the chili flakes and gather to make pliable and loose dough.
3. Apply oil over the dough and cover the mouth of the bowl with a cling wrap with enough room for the dough to rise. Keep in a warm place for an hour.
4. After an hour the dough should have raised well
5. Punch down the dough and make six equal sized balls and arrange it in a greased baking tray. Pre heat the oven to 190oC. Till then the dough balls we have made will again rise a bit.
6. Brush the buns with milk and bake the buns at 190oC for 13-15 minutes or until the top starts turning golden color.
7. Brush again with butter on top.
And enjoy with butter when it’s still warm!!
Notes: 
• The dough should be very pliable and soft, if its stiff and tight you may not get soft buns.
• If your dough doesn’t rise then your yeast is not active, you may not get soft buns either.
• Tastes and smell great even after cooling down.
• You can add along chopped green chilies too for extra hotness!
