Pin This post is dedicated to one of the sweetest people I have come across in my life, Bhags 🙂 I have taken inspiration from Raaga’s and Jai and Bee’s posts on similar kind of bread/buns. Since I made my first bread, I have gone on to bake a lot more loaves and rolls. My most popular and favourite bread recipes are – garlic bread rolls, hokkaido milk bread and 30 minute pizza base. Basic White Bread Recipe Ingredients: Maida or plain flour – 1 cup Yeast – 1tbsp Oil – 1 tbsp Sugar – 1 tbsp Salt – 3/4 tbsp Milk – 4 tbsp Boiling water – 4 tbsp Instructions:
- Dissolve yeast in little water and keep aside.
- Mix oil, salt, sugar and boiling water well till the sugar dissolves. Add milk to bring it to room temperature.
- Add yeast to this mixture and blend in well. Add flour and knead well until well incorporated Keep mixture in a greased bowl for an hour and let it rise.
- The mixture will be sticky and very difficult to shape. Transfer it to a thick baking pot/dish and bake for 20-25 mins. My first attempt at baking bread was far from perfect and I think I should get hold of a better baking pan and try fermenting for an entire day like the original recipes suggests. I also want to try this with whole wheat since I prefer healthier bread. Also want to try adding oats, bran and other stuff to the bread. Lets see, all in good time. I am super thrilled with my first attempt and it was pure heaven having the smell of baked bread in the house for an entire day 🙂
