Ingredients
  • Approx 4 cups best-for-bread flour
  • 1 pkg active dry yeast
  • 1 ¼ cups warm water for yeast
  • 1 tsp sugar to activate yeast.
  • ¼ cup warm cater for adding to dough
  • 1 tsp salt
  • ¼ cup olive oil
  • 1 whole egg
  • ¼ lb melted butter (for basting rolls)

Directions
  1. Add all dry ingredients reserving 2 cups of the flour
  2. Add the egg, the oil, the yeast mixture, and the additional water.
  3. Mix dough by hand, adding flour gradually until the dough begins to come away from the sides of the bowl.
  4. Let the dough rest 10 minutes
  5. After the resting period, knead the dough right in the bowl, gently, for 3 to 5 minutes
  6. Now place the bowl into a warm place to proof until doubled in bulk.
  7. This doesn’t take very long, only about 40 minutes
  8. Place a little flour on the working surface
  9. Knead the dough, pressing, turning, folding, and repeating until the dough is smooth and blistered.
  10. This usually takes about 6 to 10 minutes.
  11. ========================================
  12. Form the rolls:
  13. Separate roughly a ‘fistful’ sized piece of dough.
  14. Roll between hands and form a cigar shape.
  15. Now give it a twist to form a swirl, and place it onto the baking pan.
  16. Each roll is made in the same way, forming the pattern you see in the illustrations.
  17. Brush with the melted butter, sprinkle with sesame seeds, and proof again in a warm place until doubled in bulk. (see illustration)
  18. Bake at 350*F for 20-30 minutes or until golden brown.
  19. Cool, then separate the rolls and pile on top of each other and serve on plate!
