Cute little pinwheel rolls with a mince filling. They look great and taste even better!
Ingredients
- 3 cups all purpose flour
- 1 tsp. instant yeast
- 1/4 tsp. baking powder
- 1 1/2 tsp. salt
- 1 tsp. sugar
- 4 tbsp oil plus 1 tbsp. butter
- water and milk (half and half)
Instructions
First, sieve the flour and add the salt, baking powder, yeast, oil and butter. Heat the water/milk to lukewarm (very hot water will kill the yeast). Add the water gradually into the flour whilst kneading until you have a soft but firm dough. Knead the dough, pounding it as much as you can to give the buns a delicately soft texture. The more you knead the better the result.
Put the dough into a lightly-oiled spacious bowl and turn it over in the bowl once so that the little oil covers the dough all over. Cover the bowl with a damp warm towel and let the dough rise for about half an hour to 45 mins.
Once risen, punch down, and then knead it again for 2-3mins.
Roll out into a rectangular shape of less than quarter inch thickness. Then add your filling, in this case I've used my favorite mince filling HERE.
Whip some egg white with a tsp. of water, then drizzle all over the mince. Now roll your rectangle like a swiss roll. Place the whole roll on a greased baking tray, then let it sit for another half an hour until it rises again.
Brush with egg yolk and bake in a preheated oven at 180 C for 10 minutes. Take the tray out, and using a very sharp knife slice the big roll to form smaller rolls. Put them back on the tray and bake again for about 5-10 minutes. This is to make sure the dough gets done all the way through, and also slicing when the roll is a bit more solid helps get a cleaner cut than if you slice the roll when the dough is still raw.
Serve and enjoy! 🙂

I usually knead by hand, measurements will remain the same but be careful not to add all the liquid in one go. Add gradually and use as much as needed to make a soft smooth dough.
