KHARA BUNS/SAVOURY BUNS

in , , , , on Wednesday, May 16, 2012

      I love savoury baking a lot than baking cake or cookies… I have tried this buns for 2-3 times and I just simply love it. I am now hooked to my pizza base dough and use it as basic dough for other bakes like I have used for Garlic buns and Stuffed masala buns too.This time I have replaced a part of maida with atta with no compromise in taste.This is simple and you can make it for either BF or for tea time snack…
Kara buns


Ingredients
Maida/All purpose flour 1 cup
Wheat flour 1/2 cup
Active dry yeast 1 tblsp
Milk 1/4 cup(+1 tblsp if needed)
Water 1/4 cup(+1 tblsp if needed)
Olive oil 1/8 cup
Sugar 1/2 tblsp
Salt 3/4 tsp
Chopped garlic 1 tblsp
Chopped coriander 1 & 1/2 tblsp
Chilli flakes 1 tblsp
savory buns
Method:
  1. Sieve the flours together in a large bowl and make a dent in the centre. Heat the milk and water little(luke warm) and add sugar,yeast to it and mix well to dissolve yeast completely.
  2. Pour this mixture in the dent, add olive oil,salt,chopped garlic,coriander and the chilli flakes and gather to make a pliable and loose dough.

  3. Apply oil over the dough and cover the mouth of the bowl with a cling wrap with enough room for the dough to rise.Keep in a warm place for an hour.
  4. After an hour the dough should have raised well(refer picture).

and enjoy with butter when its still warm!! Khara buns Notes:
  • The dough should be very pliable and soft,if its stiff and tight you may not get soft buns.
  • If your dough doesnt rise then your yeast is not active,you may not get soft buns either.
  • Tastes and smell great even after cooling down.
  • You can add along chopped green chillies too for extra hotness!
