Quick Rolls - cooking recipe
Ingredients
-
6 cups flour
1/2 ounce fast rising yeast
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup oil
2 eggs
2 cups warm water
1 egg, beaten (for brushing)
Preparation
-
Proof the yeast with a bit of the warm water and sugar in a small bowl.
Meanwhile, mix the flour, remaining sugar and salt together in a large bowl.
When the yeast is foaming and bubbling after a few minutes, mix it into the dough along with the two eggs, warm water and oil.
Knead the dough (it will be sticky) until smooth and elastic.
In a KitchenAid mixer this only takes a couple minutes on speed 3.
Let rise in a warm place for 1 1/2 to 2 hours.
Punch down and then shape into rolls and let rise again.
I like to make cloverleaf rolls with this recipe, which involves placing three balls of dough, no bigger than a ping pong ball, in a greased muffin cup.
Once the balls have risen again, brush with the beaten egg for a nice brown finish and bake in a hot oven.
The time will depend on the size, but mine take about 15 minutes at 200 C.
