Wholemeal Buns




Love in the kitchen

A house smelling of freshly baked bread is a house smelling of love, joy and sunshine as far as I'm concerned.  I hope that when I own my own house my house will smell of beautiful cooking everyday, well with the occasional Thai takeaway from now and again.

Ingredients:

500g strong wholemeal flour, 275ml of warm water, 2 1/2 tsps salt, 1tsp caster sugar, 1 satchet 7g dried yeast, 1tsp butter.


Method:

1. Put the yeast, sugar and water in a bowl until a froth has formed on top.
2. Sieve the flour and salt into a large bowl and rub in the butter.
3. Make a well in the centre and put the yeast mix in it.
4. Mix the bread mix until you have made a soft dough.
5. Knead for 10 minutes onto a floured work surface.
6. Divide into bread rolls on a baking sheet on a baking tray.
7. Leave these to rise for an hour.
8. When the rolls have doubled in size pre heat oven to 200 degrees C/ Gas Mark 6.
9. Bake for 20 minutes until the rolls are brown and hollow on the outside.
