Ingredients
425g strong white bread flour
7g sachet fast action yeast
½ tbsp fine salt
75ml sunflower oil, plus extra for greasing
30g clear honey
2 British Blacktail Free Range Medium Eggs
Poppy seeds, to decorate
Sesame seeds, to decorate
Method
Place the flour, yeast, salt, oil, honey and
1 egg in a large mixing bowl. Mix everything
thoroughly with your hands (using your
dominant hand to knead and the other to
hold the bowl). Gradually start adding enough
lukewarm water until the dough comes
together. You will probably need about
120ml, but may need to use a little more or
little less. You can also do this in a stand
mixer with the dough hook attached.
Once the dough comes together roughly,
remove from the bowl and knead on a clean
surface for around 5 minutes. Place into
a lightly oiled bowl, cover with a clean tea
towel and allow to rise somewhere warm
for 1-2 hours, or until doubled in size.
Lightly grease a square baking tin (roughly
23x23cm) with oil. Remove the tea towel from
the bowl and punch the dough down. Divide
into 9 equal-sized pieces (if you want to be
neat weigh each piece, roughly 80g). Roll each
piece into a ball and place side-by-side in the
tin in rows of 3. Cover once more and allow
to rise a second time for about 45 minutes.
Once ready to bake, preheat the oven to
200ºC, gas mark 6. Lightly beat the remaining
egg, brush each roll with it and sprinkle with
a few poppy seeds, sesame seeds or a mix of
the two. Bake for around 20 minutes, until
dark brown in colour. If you’re worried that
they’re darkening too much, cover with foil
and continue baking. Remove and serve warm.
