Another Hot Dog Buns

This is my family's favourite bun. Made this countless times! :) Wanted to share with others that you can actually use corn oil in place of butter for bread (much healthier). This is my findings after trying with loaves and buns. I see no different in texture of the bread if corn oil is used.

Recipe as follows:

(Make 16 buns)

Ingredient A:

300g bread flour (I add abt 2 tbs more - add 1 tbs at a time)

1/2 tsp salt

1+1/2 tbsp milk powder

50g caster sugar

Ingredient B:

125ml water

1+1/2 tsp instant yeast

1 egg

Ingredient C:

40g butter (I use 40g corn oil)

For glazing:

1 egg (Beaten)

For filling

8 pieces chicken sausages/frankfurters (halved)

Some chilli sauce, some dried Rosemary (bottled) (I use tomato sauce)

Method:

1. To make bread dough: Combine ingredient A in a mixer and mix well. Add in ingredient B and beat till a dough is formed. Add in ingredient C and beat till dough is smooth and elastic to the touch.

2. Leave dough in a big bowl, covered with a damp cloth. Let it rise in a warm place for 35 minutes until double its original size. Divide dough into 35g portions. Flatten and roll out each portion dough into a longish shape. Place a halved sausage roll in the centre, roll up and seal. Arrange on a greased tray, well spaced apart. Cover and rest for the next 40 minutes until buns double in size once again.

3. Glaze with beaten egg wash and decorate with a spread of chilli sauce. Sprinkle some dried Rosemary on top. Bake buns in a preheated oven @ 180 deg C for 15 minutes. Cool well on a wire rack.

While waiting for the buns to cool off, my sons asked for the buns. :)
