STEAMED ROLLS

Ingredients:
Plain flour - 700 gms
Salt
Oil
Fresh yeast - 1 tbsp
Warm water - 450 ml

Method:

• Cream the yeast and add to the water, knead into the flour until smooth and elastic; this takes about 5 minutes.
• Put into a clean bowl and leave, uncovered, in a warm place for about 1 1/2 hours or until the dough has doubles its original size.
• Turn on to a floured surface and knead lightly.
• Divide into 2 pieces and roll out each to an oblong about 15" long by 4 " wide.
• Sprinkle with salt and oil. Roll each piece up from the long side to make two sausage shapes.
• Cut each into short lengths and leave in a warm place for about 10 minutes.
• Steam the rolls in a steaming tier for 20 minutes.

Note: These rolls can successfully be stored in a cold place and reheated without loss of flavour or texture.
