INGREDIENTS

  • 500 g all-purpose flour
  • 10 g instant dry yeast
  • 40 g sugar
  • 8 g salt
  • 250–300 ml warm milk or water
  • 40 g butter (softened)
  • 1 egg (optional, for richer texture)

INSTRUCTIONS

  1. In a large bowl, mix flour, yeast, sugar, and salt.
  2. Add warm milk (or water) and mix to form a soft dough.
  3. Add butter (and egg if using) and knead the dough for 8–10 minutes until smooth and elastic.
  4. Cover the dough and let it rise in a warm place for 1–2 hours until doubled in size.
  5. Punch down the dough and divide it into equal portions.
  6. Shape each portion into a smooth ball and place on a baking tray.
  7. Cover and let them rise again for 30–40 minutes.
  8. Preheat oven to 180°C (350°F).
  9. Bake for 15–20 minutes until golden brown.
  10. Brush with butter after baking for a soft crust.

TIPS

  • Always use warm (not hot) liquid to activate yeast properly.
  • Knead well to develop soft and fluffy texture.
  • Do not skip the second rise; it makes rolls extra light.
  • You can brush with milk before baking for a shiny top.
  • Store in an airtight container to keep them soft longer.
