Mixing bowls
Rolling pin
Baking tray
Parchment paper
Pastry brush
- 200 ml milk
- 200 ml water
- 4 tablespoons sugar
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 egg
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 1 tablespoon dry yeast
- 800 g wheat flour enough to make the dough non-sticky
- cheese (mozzarella, gouda, or your favorite)
- ham slices
- grated cheese
In a large bowl, combine milk, water, sugar, salt, egg, and oil. Stir until everything blends smoothly.
Sprinkle in the yeast and mix again.
Gradually add flour, stirring until the dough stops sticking to your hands.
Knead the dough for about 5 minutes until smooth and elastic.
Cover the dough with a kitchen towel and let it rest for 20 minutes.
Roll out the dough into a flat rectangle and cut into equal portions.
Place a slice of ham and some cheese in the center of each piece and seal the edges.
Shape them into balls and place on a baking tray.
Let the shaped rolls rest for another 30 minutes.
Brush the tops with beaten egg and sprinkle grated cheese.
Bake at 180°C (350°F) for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown.
Feel free to experiment with different cheeses and fillings. Leave out the ham for a vegetarian version or add finely chopped spinach or kale for nutrition. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to two days at room temperature or refrigerate for longer freshness. To freeze, wrap individually in plastic wrap and place in a freezer-safe bag. Enjoy reheating in the oven for the best texture.
