Preparation
- For the Dough: Activate the Yeast: Combine 1 tsp instant dry yeast, 1 tbsp sugar, and 125 ml warm milk in a small bowl. Let sit for 5-10 minutes until frothy.
- Prepare the Dough: In a large mixing bowl, combine flour and salt.
- Add yeast mixture, whisked egg (reserving 1 tbsp for glazing), and butter/margarine to the flour.
- Mix until the dough comes together, then knead for 10 minutes until smooth and elastic.
- Cover and let the dough rise in a warm place for 1-2 hours, or until doubled in size.
- For the Filling: Cook the Vegetables: Heat 2 tbsp oil in a skillet over medium heat.
- Add chopped onion and cook until soft and translucent.
- Stir in grated carrot and green onion; sauté for 2-3 minutes.
- Prepare the Chicken Filling: Stir in 1 tsp flour and cook for 1 minute.
- Gradually add 1 cup milk, stirring continuously until thickened.
- Add shredded chicken, seasonings (salt, pepper, chili flakes, parsley, turmeric), and mix well. Remove from heat and let cool.
- Stir in shredded cheese.
- Assemble the Rolls: Punch down the risen dough and divide it into 12 equal pieces.
- Roll each piece into a ball, then flatten into a small circle.
- Place a spoonful of filling in the center and gather the edges to seal. Shape into rolls.
- Place seam-side down on a baking tray lined with parchment paper.
- Cover and let rise for another 20-30 minutes.
- Bake the Rolls: Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F).
- Brush the rolls with the reserved whisked egg for a shiny, golden glaze.
- Bake for 18-20 minutes, or until golden brown.
- Remove from the oven and cool slightly before serving.
