  36. Method of preparation:&lt;/div&gt;
  37. &lt;div&gt;
  38. 1.In a bowl mix yeast and milk and set to foam for 5 minutes.&lt;br /&gt;
  39. 2. Mix flax seed powder and hot water and let sit for few minutes. It will turn thick by that time. If it doesn&#39;t then heat this mixture till it turns thick and resembles egg white in texture. Let cool for some time.&lt;/div&gt;
  40. &lt;div&gt;
  41. 3. Add honey, salt and flax mixture and stir until everything mixes.&lt;/div&gt;
  42. &lt;div&gt;
  43. 4. Add the cardamom and raisins and mix well.&lt;/div&gt;
  44. &lt;div&gt;
  45. 5. Add flour to this mixture and knead to a soft and elastic dough about 8 to 10 minutes. The dough is sticky at&amp;nbsp;beginning&amp;nbsp;but turns soft and elastic as you knead it. Add little extra flour if really needed&amp;nbsp;approx&amp;nbsp;1 hour for me..&lt;/div&gt;
  46. &lt;div&gt;
  47. 6. Transfer the dough to lightly oiled bowl and set aside to double in size.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
  48. &lt;div&gt;
  49. 7. Punch the dough and shape them to 12 round balls/ rolls and set on a baking tray to rise for another 25 minutes.&lt;/div&gt;
  50. &lt;div&gt;
  51. 8. Preheat oven to 400F. Egg/milk wash the rolls and bake for about 10 to 15 minutes or till lightly browned.&lt;/div&gt;
  52. &lt;div&gt;
  53. 9. Allow to cool.Apply icing and serve.&lt;br /&gt;
  54. &lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: center;&quot;&gt;

  56. &lt;br /&gt;
  57. &lt;br /&gt;
  58. &lt;div&gt;
  59. For Icing:&lt;br /&gt;
  60. Confectioners sugar-1/2 cup&lt;br /&gt;
  61. Cream-1 tbsp&lt;/div&gt;
  62. &lt;div&gt;
  63. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  64. &lt;div&gt;
  65. 1. Mix the cream and powdered sugar to smooth paste.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
  66. &lt;div&gt;
  67. 2. Once rolls cool completely, &amp;nbsp;use a piping bag to mark the cross on the buns. You can do it with a tsp too.&lt;/div&gt;

I went with the Tangzhong method where in one part of flour is heated to 65C with five part of water. This method yields soft breads. The recipe is from &lt;a href=&quot;http://en.christinesrecipes.com/2010/10/hokkaido-milk-toast-japanese-style.html#.UUOFQUeG2Sq&quot;&gt;Christine&#39;s Recipe &lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp; and thanks &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.zestysouthindiankitchen.com/&quot;&gt;Swathi&lt;/a&gt; for suggesting it.&amp;nbsp;The bread was super soft and had great texture..Here is how its done..&lt;br /&gt;

  220. 3. Instead of bread flour you can use all purpose flour.&lt;br /&gt;
  221. 4. For the half milk half water used in making tangzhong you can use full 1 cup water.&lt;br /&gt;
  222. 5. Instead of egg wash you can use milk or cream to get brown color, but gloss will not be there.&lt;br /&gt;
  223. 6. While baking if the top of your bread is browning fast then cover it with a foil.&lt;br /&gt;
  224. 7. The rise time of dough depends on the area you live.&lt;br /&gt;
  225. 8. The dough is very sticky.Its a mess when you knead with hand. You have to knead till it is soft and elastic and do not add extra dough. Kneading properly should help to get rid of&amp;nbsp;stickiness.&lt;br /&gt;

They are cute buttery delights when done. But baking them meant a lot of patience, effort, and calculation, all divided into 3 days. I have had them many times from here and have thought of baking them too but never imagined that it was going to be a 3 day process and some work. Thanks to the group &quot;We Knead to bake&quot; which inspired to make this and for the detailed information given by Aparna.. The original recipe is by &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.finecooking.com/recipes/classic-croissants.aspx&quot;&gt;Jeffrey Hamelman&lt;/a&gt;. This&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ot3jKnkTfPY&amp;amp;feature=player_embedded&amp;amp;noredirect=1&quot;&gt;video&lt;/a&gt; will help you too...Here is my bake...&lt;br /&gt;

  260. &lt;b&gt;Day1:&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  261. &lt;br /&gt;
  262. &lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Make dough:&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  263. &amp;nbsp;1. Combine all ingredients for dough in a bowl of dough stand mixer fitted with a hook. I used my hand to do this.&lt;br /&gt;
  264. 2. Mix everything together and knead for 3 minutes to form a ball of dough.(If using mixer, mix everything on low speed for 3 minutes, scraping the sides of the mixing bowl once if necessary. Then mix further on medium speed for 3 minutes)&lt;br /&gt;
  265. 3. Lightly flour a 10&quot; pie pan/dinner plate and place the dough ball on it.&lt;br /&gt;
  266. 4. Gently&amp;nbsp;flatten&amp;nbsp;the dough slightly, lightly dust the top with flour and wrap well with a clear film/plastic so that it doesn&#39;t dry before storing it in fridge. Refrigerate overnight.&lt;br /&gt;
  267. &lt;br /&gt;
  268. &lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: center;&quot;&gt;

  285. &lt;/div&gt;
  286. &amp;nbsp;&lt;b&gt;Day 2:&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  287. &lt;b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/b&gt;
  288. &lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Make butter layer:&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  289. 1. Next day cut two 10&quot; square pieces of&amp;nbsp;parchment/wax paper.&lt;br /&gt;
  290. 2. Cut the cold butter to 1/2&quot; thick slabs. Place these pieces on one parchment paper so they form a 5 to 6 &quot;&amp;nbsp;square. Cut the butter as required to fit the square. Place the other paper on top.&lt;br /&gt;
  291. 3. Using a rolling pin, pound the butter with light even strokes. When it starts to stick use more force.&lt;br /&gt;
  292. 4. Pound the butter till it flattens out evenly to form approxi. &amp;nbsp;a 7 and 1/2&quot; square. Trim the edges to form a neat square. Add the trims on top of square and pound them again to form a smooth slab of the above measurement.Refrigerate when you roll the dough.&lt;br /&gt;
  293. &lt;br /&gt;
  294. &lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Laminate the dough:&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  295. 1. Unwrap the dough on a lightly floured work surface. Roll it out to 10-1/2&quot; square and brush off the excess flour.&lt;br /&gt;
  296. 2. Take butter from fridge which should be cold but pliable. If it isn&#39;t refrigerate till then. This so that when you roll out the dough with butter in it, neither should it be soft enough to melt, or hard enough to break.&lt;br /&gt;
  297. 3. Unwrap the butter and place it in the center to form a diamond shape on the dough.&lt;br /&gt;
  298. 4. Fold one flap of dough over the butter towards you and stretch slightly so that the point slightly touches the center/middle of butter square.&lt;br /&gt;
  299. 5. Bring the opposite flap to the middle and stretch slightly to overlap the previous one. Similarly work with other two flaps which will result in a dough forming an envelope around the butter.&lt;br /&gt;
  300. 6. Lightly press the edges together to seal the butter inside the dough so that butter doesnt escape when we roll it later.&lt;br /&gt;
  301. 7. Lightly flour the top and bottom of the dough with a rolling pin, firmly press along the dough uniformy to elongate it slightly.Now begin rolling instead of pressing to lengthen the dough instead of widening.Keep the edges straight.&lt;br /&gt;
  302. 8. Roll the dough into 8&quot;X 24&quot; rectangle. If ends lose their shape gently reshape corners with your hands.&lt;br /&gt;
  303. Brush off the excess flour.&lt;br /&gt;
  304. 9. Lightly mark the dough into three equal pieces along the long side.Now using this as guideline pick up one short end of the dough and fold 1/3rd of it back ver the dough, &amp;nbsp;so that 1/3rd of the other end is exposed.&lt;br /&gt;
  305. 10. Now fold the 1/3rd exposed dough over the folded side. Basically the dough is folded in form of a three fold letter.&lt;br /&gt;
  306. 11. Put the folded dough on a floured baking sheet, cover with a plastic wrap, and freeze for 15 to 20 minutes to relax and chill the dough.&lt;br /&gt;
  307. 12. Repeat the rolling and folding, this time rolling in the direction of the two open ends(from the shorter sides to lengthen the longer sides) until the dough is about 8&quot; X 24&quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
  308. 13. Once again fold the dough in thirds, &amp;nbsp;brushing off excesss flour and turning any rounded edges or short ends with exposed or smeared layers. Cover once again with a plastic wrap and freeze for another 15 to 20 minutes.&lt;br /&gt;
  309. 14. Roll and fold the dough exactly in same way for third time and put it in baking sheet. Cover with plastic wrap, tucking the plastic under all sides and refrigerate it.&lt;br /&gt;
  310. &lt;br /&gt;
  311. &lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: center;&quot;&gt;
  312. &lt;a href=&quot;http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-RtYuVEcklV8/USm5t1-acAI/AAAAAAAAE1I/tiloWqWwGVI/s1600/Photo+2013-02-23+10.20.45+PMpp.jpg&quot; imageanchor=&quot;1&quot; style=&quot;margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;&quot;&gt;&lt;img border=&quot;0&quot; height=&quot;414&quot; src=&quot;http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-RtYuVEcklV8/USm5t1-acAI/AAAAAAAAE1I/tiloWqWwGVI/s640/Photo+2013-02-23+10.20.45+PMpp.jpg&quot; width=&quot;640&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  313. &lt;br /&gt;
  314. &lt;b&gt;Day 3:&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  315. &lt;b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/b&gt;
  316. &lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Divide the dough:&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  317. 1. Next day, unwrap and lightly flour the top and bottom of dough and then cut the dough along the longer side into halves. Cover and refrigerate one half while working with the other one.&lt;br /&gt;
  318. 2. Wake the dough up by pressing firmly along its length using a rolling pin. Just lengthen the dough do not widen it by this method.&lt;br /&gt;
  319. 3. Then roll the dough to a 8&quot;X 22&quot; long narrow strip. If dough sticks use flour.&lt;br /&gt;
  320. 4. Once dough is about 1/2 to 2/3rd of its length, it may resist to roling and may even shrink back. In that case fold the dough in thirds, cover and refrigerate for 10 mins.Then unfold dough and finish rolling.&lt;br /&gt;
  321. 5. Lift dough an inch off the table at its midpoint and allow it to shrink back which will keep it from shrinking when cut. See that there’s excess dough on either end so that when you trim the edges to straighten them, you have a strip of dough that is 20&quot; long. Now trim the edges so they’re straight.&lt;br /&gt;
  322. 6. Lay a measuring rule and measure lengthwise along the top length of the dough. With a knife, mark the top of the dough at 5-inch intervals along the length (there will be 3 marks in all).&lt;br /&gt;
  323. 7. Now place the rule or tape measure along the bottom length of the dough. Make a mark 2-1/2 inches in from the end of the dough.&lt;br /&gt;
  324. 8. Make marks at 5-inch intervals from this point all along the bottom of the dough. You’ll have 4 marks that fall halfway between the marks at the top.&lt;br /&gt;
  325. 9. Make diagonal cuts by positioning the measuring scale at the top corner and the first bottom mark. Use a pizza wheel or a bench scraper and cut the dough along this line which connects each top mark to the next bottom mark and then back to the next top mark and so on.&lt;br /&gt;
  326. 10. This way you will have 7 triangles and a scrap of dough at each end.( If you’re good at “eyeballing” and cutting the dough into triangles, then forget the measuring rule, marking and cutting instructions)&lt;br /&gt;
  327. &lt;br /&gt;

  330. &lt;br /&gt;
  331. &lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Shape the croissants:&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  332. 1. Work with one piece of triangular dough at a time. Using your rolling pin, very lightly roll (do not make it thin but only stretch it slightly) the triangle to stretch it a little, until it is about 10&quot; long. This will give your croissants height and layers. You can stretch it by hand too, but if you don’t have the&amp;nbsp;practice&amp;nbsp; your stretching could be uneven.&lt;br /&gt;
  333. 2. Using a sharp small knife, make a 1/2- to 3/4-inch-long notch in the&amp;nbsp;center&amp;nbsp;of the short side of each triangle. The notch helps the rolled croissant curl into a crescent.&lt;br /&gt;
  334. 3. Place the triangle on the work surface with the notched side closest to you. With one hand on each side of the notch, begin to roll the dough away from you, towards the pointed end.&lt;br /&gt;
  335. 4. Flare your hands outward as you roll so that the notched “legs” become longer. Roll the triangle tight enough but not too tight to compress it, until you reach the “pointy” end which should be under the croissant.&lt;br /&gt;
  336. 5. Now bend the two legs towards you to form a tight crescent shape and gently press the tips of the legs together (they’ll come apart while proofing but keep their crescent shape).&lt;br /&gt;
  337. 6. Shape all the triangles like this into croissants and place them on a greased or parchment lined baking sheet leaving as much space between them as they will rise quite a bit.&lt;br /&gt;
  338. &lt;br /&gt;

  352. 1. Brush the croissants with milk (or a mix of milk and cream) or egg wash.&lt;br /&gt;
  353. &amp;nbsp;If using an egg wash make by whisking one egg with 1 tsp water in a small bowl until very smooth. Lightly brush this on each croissant.&lt;br /&gt;
  354. 2. Refrigerate the remaining milk/ milk+cream or egg wash for brushing the croissants again later.&lt;br /&gt;
  355. 3. Place the croissants in a cool and draft-free place (the butter should not melt) for proofing/ rising for about 1 1/2 to 2 hours. &amp;nbsp;They might need longer than 2 hours to proof, maybe as much as 3 hours, so make sure to let croissants take the time to proof.&lt;br /&gt;
  356. 4. The croissants will be distinctly larger but not doubled in size. They’re ready if you can see the layers of dough from the side, and if you lightly shake the sheets, the croissants will wiggle.&lt;br /&gt;
  357. &lt;br /&gt;
  358. &lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Bake the croissants:&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  359. 1. Just before the croissants are fully proofed, pre-heat your oven to 400F in a convection oven.&lt;br /&gt;
  360. 2. Brush the croissants with milk/ milk+cream (or egg wash) a second time.&lt;br /&gt;
  361. 3. Place your baking sheets on the top and bake them for about 15 to 20 minutes till they’re done and golden brown on top and just beginning to brown at the sides.&lt;br /&gt;
  362. 4. If they &amp;nbsp;seem to be darkening too quickly during baking, lower the oven temperature by 25F. Cool the croissants on the baking sheets on racks.&lt;br /&gt;
  363. 5. Serve warm. This recipe makes 15 croissants.&lt;br /&gt;

  366. &lt;div&gt;
  367. &lt;br /&gt;
  368. Notes:&lt;br /&gt;
  369. 1. Do not&amp;nbsp;over knead&amp;nbsp;the dough. My dough was a bit dry so had to add 2 tbsp of extra water.&lt;br /&gt;
  370. 2. The butter and dough should be cold while working.&lt;br /&gt;
  371. 3. Seal the butter completely. While rolling the butter should not leak.&lt;br /&gt;
  372. 4. If there are leaks in 2 to 3 places use flour to seal it. Dust little.&lt;br /&gt;
  373. &lt;br /&gt;

  414. Method of preparation:&lt;br /&gt;
  415. 1. In a large mixing bowl, mix together the yeast and water. Let sit 5 minutes until yeast is foamy. Mix in the olive oil, salt, and flour.&lt;br /&gt;
  416. 2.Mix the flour and then knead the dough on a lightly floured surface until dough is soft and elastic, 7-10 minutes.&lt;br /&gt;
  417. 3. Transfer dough to a lightly oiled bowl and cover with a kitchen towel.&lt;br /&gt;
  418. 4. Allow to rise for 1 1/2 to 2 hours, or until dough is doubled in size.&lt;br /&gt;
  419. 5. In a small bowl, combine melted butter, Italian seasoning, and minced garlic. Set aside.&lt;br /&gt;
  420. 6. Punch down the dough. Tear off small pieces of dough, coat in the butter mixture, and place in the bottom of a bundt pan. Repeat this process until you have one layer of dough balls.&lt;br /&gt;
  421. 7. Sprinkle some of the Parmesan cheese. Continue layering the dough balls and cheese until you have 3 layers.&lt;br /&gt;
  422. 8. Cover the pan with a clean towel and allow to sit until dough has doubled in size, 20-30 minutes.&lt;br /&gt;
  423. 9. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, or until bread is golden brown.Serve hot.&lt;br /&gt;

Then I saw &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.mydiversekitchen.com/&quot;&gt;Aparna&lt;/a&gt; starting &amp;nbsp;a group known as We Knead To Bake where in she was checking with people who was interested to bake one bread every month thereby 12 breads for the year. That sounded interesting and I was sure that I would get to do many other varieties other than the white and garlic ones. I sent her a mail and she added me to the group and sent me the recipe for this month. When I opened it I realized that very recently I did a herb bread which is still to be published. So this time I went a little wild and wanted to try something different. That was when we had a dinner at Mediterranean and had baba Ganoush. Now that made me think that I would try that as a filling, but then that would be too tangy for our taste. Then came the idea of using eggplant in the Indian way known as Baingan bharta where the eggplant is smoked on fire and then mashed and mixed with other spices. Now I had to make it dry in order to not end with a soggy bread. so have made some variations resulting in a delicious spread on bread.As for the bread this is very soft and delicious one and using milk to knead it adds to the deliciousness.&lt;br /&gt;

  501. &lt;br /&gt;
  502. Method of Preparation:&lt;br /&gt;
  503. 1. In a small bowl, dissolve the sugar and the yeast in the 1/2 cup of warm milk. Keep aside for about 5 minutes till the yeast rises.&lt;br /&gt;
  504. 2. Put 2 3/4 cup of flour, salt, softened butter, and garlic paste in a bowl and mix.&lt;br /&gt;
  505. 3. Then add the yeast mixture and the 3/4 cup of milk and knead till you have a soft, smooth and elastic/ pliable dough which is not sticky. Add a little extra flour if your dough is sticking.&lt;br /&gt;
  506. 4. Shape the dough into a ball and place it in a well-oiled bowl, turning the dough to coat it completely with oil. Cover and let it rise for about 1 to 1 1/2 hours or until almost double in volume.&lt;br /&gt;
  507. 5. Dust your work surface lightly with flour. Deflate the dough, shape it into a square and roll the dough out into a larger square that is about 12&quot; by 12&quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
  508. 6. &amp;nbsp;Brush the surface of the square with the melted butter. Evenly spread the bhaingan bartha filing.&lt;br /&gt;
  509. 7. Using a pizza cutter, slice the dough from top to bottom into 6 long and even strips – they do not have to be perfect. Lay each strip on top of the next, with the topping facing upwards, until you have a stack of the strips.You can put the 2 strips cut from the sides in the middle of the stack so it looks neater.&lt;br /&gt;
  510. 8. &amp;nbsp;Using a pastry scraper or a sharp knife, cut straight down through the stack dividing it into 6 equal pieces (6 square stacks).&lt;br /&gt;
  511. 9. Grease and lightly flour a 9&quot; by 5&quot; loaf tin. Butter and lightly flour a 9 x 5 loaf pan. Layer the square slices, cut sides down into the loaf tin&lt;br /&gt;
  512. 10. Cover the loaf tin dough with a towel and allow the dough to rise for an hour. Lightly brush some milk over the top of the loaf.&lt;br /&gt;
  513. 11. Bake the dough at 350F for about 30 to 40 minutes until it is done and the top is golden brown. This recipe bakes one 9&quot; by 5&quot; loaf.&lt;br /&gt;

  522. Notes:&lt;br /&gt;
  523. 1.&amp;nbsp;Baingan bharta&amp;nbsp;has to be dry to avoid a soggy bread.&lt;br /&gt;
  524. 2. Before applying the mixture on bread see that its completely cooled.&lt;br /&gt;
  525. 3. In order to reduce moisture I have decreased the amount of tomato and added amchur.&lt;br /&gt;

She had given every necessary details for shapes with respective videos.&lt;br /&gt;
  537. Now on to my struggle with these rolls...As of it the videos were very helpful and clear. I felt that it was easy to shape..but then while shaping other than clover leaf everything else was a bit tough for me...Shaping was not tough..getting the end product in same shape was. Shaped goods looked good once they doubled but after baking somehow they were terrible..I need to learn by practicing to perfect it. As for the recipe I tried baking the one using egg the Lion House Rolls recipe. The rolls where soft and delicious and was texture wise superb compared to eggless ones that I have baked till now.&lt;br /&gt;

  541. &lt;br /&gt;
  542. All purpose&amp;nbsp;flour-5-5 1/2 cups(bread flour can be used)&lt;br /&gt;
  543. Warm water-2 cups&amp;nbsp;(110-115 degrees)&lt;br /&gt;
  544. Nonfat dry milk-2/3 cup(instant)&lt;br /&gt;
  545. Dry yeast-2 tbsp&lt;br /&gt;

  553. &lt;br /&gt;
  554. Method of Preparation:&lt;br /&gt;
  555. 1. In the large bowl of an electric mixer, combine the water and the milk powder and stir so the milk powder dissolves.&lt;br /&gt;
  556. 2. Add the yeast to this mixture then the sugar, salt, shortening, egg and 2 cups of the flour.&lt;br /&gt;
  557. 3. &amp;nbsp;Mix on low speed of mixer until ingredients are wet, then turn to medium speed and mix for 2 minutes.&lt;br /&gt;
  558. 4. Stop the mixer and add 2 more cups of flour then mix on low speed until the ingredients are wet, then turn mixer on medium speed and mix for 2 minutes.&lt;br /&gt;
  559. 5. The dough will be getting stiff and you may need to remove the bowl from the mixer and mix in the remaining flour by hand.&lt;br /&gt;
  560. 6. &amp;nbsp;Add approximately 1/2 cup of flour and mix again. (This can be done by hand or mixer). The dough should be soft, not overly sticky, and not stiff. (It is not necessary to use the entire amount of flour).&lt;br /&gt;
  561. 7. &amp;nbsp;Scrape the dough off the sides of the bowl and pour approximately one tablespoon of vegetable oil all around the sides of the bowl. Turn the dough over in the bowl so it is covered with the oil. (This helps prevent the dough from drying out.)&lt;br /&gt;
  562. 8. Cover with plastic and allow to rise in a warm place until double in size.&lt;br /&gt;
  563. 9. Sprinkle a cutting board or counter with flour and put the dough on the flour.&lt;br /&gt;
  564. 10. It is now ready to roll out and cut into desired shape and size of rolls.&lt;br /&gt;
  565. 11. Place on greased (or parchment lined) baking pans. Let rise in a warm place until the rolls are double in size (approx. 1-1 1/2 hours).&lt;br /&gt;
  566. 12. &amp;nbsp;Bake in a 375-degree oven for 15-20 minutes or until they are browned to your satisfaction. Brush with melted butter while hot. Yields 2 to 2 1/2 dozen rolls.&lt;br /&gt;

  633. &lt;br /&gt;
  634. &lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-UQ0u25IRxkE/TjhFBdWcwgI/AAAAAAAAAsc/3KKAXbG6Mrs/s1600/bre1.jpg&quot; imageanchor=&quot;1&quot; style=&quot;margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;&quot;&gt;&lt;img border=&quot;0&quot; height=&quot;263&quot; src=&quot;http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-UQ0u25IRxkE/TjhFBdWcwgI/AAAAAAAAAsc/3KKAXbG6Mrs/s400/bre1.jpg&quot; width=&quot;400&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  635. &lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  636. &lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;img border=&quot;0&quot; height=&quot;266&quot; src=&quot;http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-xA4havkOL9o/TjhFhHU0etI/AAAAAAAAAso/n0HYXOQ4Tfg/s400/bre4.jpg&quot; width=&quot;400&quot; /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  637. &lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  638. All Purpose Flour/Maida-3 3/4 Cup&lt;br /&gt;
  639. Active Dry Yeast-21/4 tsp&lt;br /&gt;
  640. Honey-2 tbsp&lt;br /&gt;
  641. Unsalted Butter-2 tbsp(melted and cooled)&lt;br /&gt;
  642. Milk-1 Cup&lt;br /&gt;
  643. Water-1/4 Cup&lt;br /&gt;
  644. Salt-1 1/2 tsp&lt;br /&gt;
  645. &lt;br /&gt;
  646. Method Of Preparation:&lt;br /&gt;
  647. 1. Preheat the oven to 350 F.&lt;br /&gt;
  648. 2. Heat the milk,water ,honey till luke warm(115 deg to 120 deg)/if using microwave heat for 40 to 45 sec.To this add cooled butter and yeast and keep for 5 to 10 mins for yeast to get active.&lt;br /&gt;
  649. 3. Mix the APF and salt in another bowl.&lt;br /&gt;
  650. 4. Add the yeast mixture to APF mixture and knead well to form a stiff dough that is soft and elastic,not sticky.Shape to a ball.&lt;br /&gt;
  651. 5. Place it in a lightly greased bowl and coat with oil all over.Cover and let rise in warm place till it doubles.Took about 1 hour for me.&lt;br /&gt;
  652. 6. Punch down the dough, shape the dough into a rectangle about 1 inch thick.The length and width should be approx the size of your loaf pan. I used 9X 5 inch pan.Form the rectangle to a loaf by rolling the dough from narrow edge(length).Seal with finger tips as you roll with the seam at the bottom.&lt;br /&gt;
  653. 7. Place the loaf with seam side down in the greased loaf pan.The ends should fit properly.Brush surface with butter, cover the pan with kitchen towel and put in a warm place to rise again until it comes just above the rims of pan. It took 45 min again.&lt;br /&gt;
  654. 8. Bake the bread for 40 to 45 mins or till the crust is well browned.Test by tapping the top with your finger. A hollow sound means the loaf is properly baked.&lt;br /&gt;
  655. 9. When bread is baked remove it from loaf pan and cool completely before slicing.&lt;br /&gt;

  661. &lt;br /&gt;
  662. Tips:&lt;br /&gt;
  663. 1. If top browns fast cover loosely with foil for the last 15 mins of baking.&lt;br /&gt;
  664. 2. Baking time depends on your oven.&lt;br /&gt;
  665. 3. Rising time depends on the place you stay.&lt;br /&gt;

  732. 3. Grease a&amp;nbsp; rectangle baking pan(I used square pan)&amp;nbsp;atleast 8 or 9 in..&amp;nbsp;.and keep the dough in that and shape it(see that the thickness is uniform)&amp;nbsp;to rectangle form.Keep it to rise for 30 min.&lt;br /&gt;
  733. 4. Make dimples on surface of dough using finger, brush dough with remaining oil,sprinkle cheese,arrange toppings with a pinch of salt&amp;nbsp;and then sprinkle Parmesan cheese.&lt;br /&gt;
  734. 5. Preheat oven at 400 F.Bake for 20-30 min or until golden brown.&lt;br /&gt;

I was hesitant initially as I have never prepared bread earlier.. because of which I dint tell my husband about the making of pav.&lt;em&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/em&gt;I decided.. if it was a hit I would present it to my husband and see the surprise on his face for a home made pav and if a&amp;nbsp;flop would keep my lips zipped for that day;)...No...no don&#39;t misunderstand...my hus is very cooperative towards cooking as he loves eating...I dint wanted to tempt him and give him nothing.Luckily the whole thing went so smooth that we enjoyed it with the bhaji...and I got a great wide opened mouth saying wow...from my hus...I should say that it made my day:).&lt;br /&gt;
  741. &lt;br /&gt;
  742. &lt;br /&gt;
  743. &lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;/div&gt;All purpose flour-1 and 1/2&amp;nbsp;cups+little for dusting&lt;br /&gt;
  744. Dry active yeast-1/2 packet&lt;br /&gt;
  745. lukewarm water-1/8 cup &lt;br /&gt;
  746. milk-3/4 cup&amp;nbsp;(lukewarm) &lt;br /&gt;
  747. butter-1 and 1/2&amp;nbsp;tbsp + little for brushing&lt;br /&gt;
  748. sugar-1 tbsp &lt;br /&gt;
  749. salt-1/4 tsp&lt;br /&gt;
  750. Oil little&lt;br /&gt;
  751. &lt;br /&gt;
  752. Method Of Preparation:&lt;br /&gt;
  753. &lt;br /&gt;
  754. 1. Add&amp;nbsp; butter to&amp;nbsp;lukewarm milk and set aside. Mix yeast and water together along with sugar stir and set aside until frothy&lt;br /&gt;
  755. 2. Now add the salt and milk and butter mixture to the yeast and stir well.&amp;nbsp;Then add the flour to this mixture and mix.&lt;br /&gt;
  756. 3. Knead the dough by dusting &amp;nbsp;with little&amp;nbsp;all purpose&amp;nbsp;flour for at least 10 min.While starting the kneading process the dough would be sticky after kneading it should turn soft and elastic and less sticky.&lt;br /&gt;
  757. 4. Place this on a lightly oiled bowl and cover it with a damp towel.Keep it in a warm place to double.It took two hours for me to get the dough doubled.Depends on temperature at your place.&lt;br /&gt;
  758. 5. After that take the dough and roll it to a square&amp;nbsp;on a floured surface and then cut it into&amp;nbsp;6 pieces using knife.Roll each piece out in your palm to form a round shape (or rolls). Place them side by side on a baking sheet leaving&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;little space in the middle and between each. &lt;br /&gt;
  759. set&amp;nbsp;them aside for about 30min to 1 hour to double.Cover with damp&amp;nbsp;towel. They will also stick to each other once doubled and will give the roll feel.&lt;br /&gt;
  760. 6. Pre heat the oven to 350F.Bake&amp;nbsp;the rolls&amp;nbsp;for 10 to 15 min&amp;nbsp;. Take them out,brush with little butter on top and bake for another 5 to 10 min until golden brown.All together the baking time would be 20 to 30 minutes.&lt;br /&gt;
  761. 7. Cool them and serve as chaat or for dinner or breakfast.&lt;br /&gt;
  762. &lt;br /&gt;

  767. &lt;br /&gt;
  768. &lt;br /&gt;
  769. Tips:&lt;br /&gt;
  770. 1. Don&#39;t use too much of flour for dusting.The stickiness of the dough should turn to softness by kneading.&lt;br /&gt;
  771. 2. To check if inside is cooked insert a tooth pick and it should come out clean.</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://funwidfud.blogspot.com/feeds/6560613311811684425/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://funwidfud.blogspot.com/2011/02/pav.html#comment-form' title='8 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6892746283322995228/posts/default/6560613311811684425'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6892746283322995228/posts/default/6560613311811684425'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://funwidfud.blogspot.com/2011/02/pav.html' title='Pav/Dinner Rolls'/><author><name>Reshmi Mahesh</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/04031922006327162890</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='//blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgtORm-D2v3TMTH0Z4GPnXxjHskikLFM8vrYcOcoR1s6XIrsDhiODIQsdWOKT_J_-pq_E_kM5JYNS8qg5n1uozhmGqSalYISxwOI2AaX3PvEuskCS4GcBtHoD0RhKX0EQ/s220/IMG_1253.JPG'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/" url="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_G5YBfIXV8aE/TVL-XemNLvI/AAAAAAAAAMw/w1Pwe9BU8wU/s72-c/pav1.JPG" height="72" width="72"/><thr:total>8</thr:total></entry></feed>
