Ladi Pav Burger Buns Soft Dinner Rolls from scratch

Hope you remember the Kummelweck buns I have posted recently . The same day I made these Ladi Pav burger buns as well . This buns are super soft with beautiful crust on top, apart from burger/sandwich rolls, it can be used as Indian Pav Buns/Laadi Pav . I already have an egg-less version half wheat and half bread flour recipe of Paav buns and video recipe for 100% wheat pav HERE this recipe is a keeper with egg. If you don’t find time to make patties, this and that pls take it as it is with a cup of coffee or spread some butter and serve it for dinner ie dinner rolls.

Method

• Melt the butter and keep aside
• In luke warm water add dry yeast, salt and sugar, let it rest for 5 minutes (Pic 3).
• In a wide mixing bowl add flour, melted butter (Pic 1) and 1 egg.
• It looks crumbly as shown in Pic 2.
• Now add yeast mixture half of the milk and mix well (Pic 4).
• Sprinkle the remaining milk in batches and keep kneading.
• At one stage the dough will be sticky stop adding milk and keep kneading with hands or use stand mixer to knead for another 5-8 minutes.
• If you feel the dough is hard add tsp of milk at a time and knead well.
• The final dough should be as shown in Pic 5.

• Rest the dough for 1 hour or till it doubles in size (Pic 6) by covering the top loosely with kitchen towel.
• After first proofing punch down gently and make even size balls out of it (Pic 7).
• Place them over greased and parchment paper layered baking sheet (Pic 7).
• I got 10 rolls approx 85 grams each from the dough and i used two sheets.
• Rest them for another 30 minutes for second proofing (Pic 8).
• After 30 minutes apply egg wash all over the buns with egg whites.

• Sprinkle some sesame seeds (Pic 9) and bake in preheated oven at 375°F for 10-12 minutes or till buns turn golden brown (Pic 10).
