Baked buns

baked bun
2 cups flour
1 tbsp yeast

2 tbsp sugar
½ tsp salt
3 tbsp margarine
1/4 cup milk
1 egg
warm water
egg yolk brush before baking buns

Combine yeast and sugar with warm water, when the mixture froths add all the ingredients except the egg yolk and knead.
Leave the dough to double for at least 6 hours. Roll the dough, put filling and close. Brush egg yolk on top of each bun and place in

a greased baking dish about 2 inches apart. Bake at 350F for 20 minutes till golden brown. The bun will expand so put about 1 tbsp filling, if not there would only be a little bit of filling and more bread.

For fish filling

1 tin mackerel or any other fish
1 tbsp oil
1/4 tsp mustard seed
1/2 tsp curry leaves
1 onion
1 tsp garlic ginger paste
1/2 tsp chillie powder
1/4 tsp coriander powder
1/4 tsp garam masala
2 potatoes boiled mashed
1 tbsp MD chillie sauce optional
1/2 tsp salt
1 tsp lemon juice

Heat oil add mustard seeds, onion, curry leaves, ginger garlic paste, spices then the fish. Cook till the fish blends with the spices, add chillie sauce, potatoes, lemon juice and remove from heat. When cool fill the buns.


Put a tbsp of sweet and spicy onion sambal and half a boiled egg.

  19. These look fabulous! Are there other fillings that you use for this dough? I can't use fish due to an allergy, I guess I could really put anything inside the dough! Great looking buns though!
