- Ready In:
- 2hrs 20mins
- Ingredients:
- 8
- Yields:
-
16 rolls
- Serves:
- 4-6
ingredients
- 450 g plain flour, plus extra
- plain flour, for dusting
- 1 1⁄2 teaspoons salt
- 2 teaspoons dried yeast
- 1 teaspoon sugar
- 275 ml milk, hand-hot
- 110 g butter, at room temperature
- 1 egg, lightly beaten
directions
- Sift the flour, salt, dried yeast and sugar into a bowl. Make a well in the centre and pour in the milk.
- Mix in and knead to form a smooth dough, then turn the dough onto a work surface and knead for about 10 minutes.
- Put the dough in a greased bowl, cover with clingfilm and leave it to rise in a warm place for 1-1 1/2 hours until doubled in size.
- Punch the dough down in the bowl to knock the air out, and then gradually work in the softened butter a little at a time.
- The dough will now be very sticky to work with, but just continue working on until the butter is blended in evenly.
- Turn it out onto a lightly floured work surface and shape the dough into a ball and cut the ball into 16 bits.
- Roll each ball out into a long sausage-shaped roll, and then tie each roll into a knot.
- Place each roll onto a greased baking tray and brush the top of the rolls with the beaten egg.
- Loosely cover the baking sheet with a clingfilm and leave it to rise again in a warm place for about half an hour.
- Meanwhile, pre-heat the oven to gas mark 5/375°F/190°C.
- Bake in the centre shelf of the oven for about 20 minutes or until golden brown.
- Remove from oven and transfer on to a wire rack to cool.

Excellent rolls, very easy to make and the texture was nice and light. I followed the directions exatly as written and they were easy to follow. The only thing I will do differently the next time is to add a little water to the egg before brushing it on the rolls. -
i've made a lot of rolls in my 57 years and have eats twice that many this are the best yet -
Buddha made these rolls and enjoyed making the knot shapes. Although his didn't turn out as pretty as the ones on this recipe, he made them with love, and that's what matters most. They are easy to assemble, light in texture, and delicious in flavor.

Jackson Brown, Jr. <img src=http://i166.photobucket.com/albums/u82/aaliyahsmum_album/images.jpg alt= /> <br /> <img src=http://i166.photobucket.com/albums/u82/aaliyahsmum_album/Untitled-11.jpg alt= /> <br /> <br />For a hobby, I'm into photography. I thoroughly enjoy baking, but have to admit, I have two left hands when it comes to decorating cakes! I also do a bit of knitting (beginner's stage) and reading. Stephen King and Dean Koontz are my all time favourite authors, and, of course, LOVE Calvin and Hobbes (does it show??!!) <br /> <br /> <img src=http://i166.photobucket.com/albums/u82/aaliyahsmum_album/chch-atheist.gif alt= /> <br /> <br /> <img src=http://i166.photobucket.com/albums/u82/aaliyahsmum_album/Untitled-1-1.jpg alt= /></p>
<p>I search for recipes that carry ingredients I can get hold of locally (or I have stocked in my cupboard!). Recipes I have posted are ALL tried and tested and have been enjoyed by all! So, I hope you and your family will enjoy as well! <br /> <br />My rating system is fairly simple. Since I only pick recipes that I know my family will enjoy (looking at the list of ingredients), it's either 5 or 4 stars, I do not go any lower. I may sometimes do a bit of tweaking but that is only due to my family's tastes. If I do have problems with a recipe or if it didn't turn out the way it should have done, then I just leave a comment without any rating. <br /> <br /><img src=http://i166.photobucket.com/albums/u82/aaliyahsmum_album/Untitled-12.jpg alt= /></p>
