garlic bun

recipe referred from:
Happy Home Baking

Quite nice with a bit of garlic smell. I edited the recipe to my liking and substitute basil leaves for parsley as i got a big basil plant growing outside. Instead of 6 large buns, i made 12 small ones.

Ingredients:

Bread:
200g bread flour
15g caster sugar
1/4 tsp salt
1/2 tsp instant yeast
130g milk
15g butter

Filling:
20g butter/ margarine, soften room temperature
2 cloves of garlic smashed)
1 basil leaf finely chop into small pieces.

1) Place all ingredients except butter into bread machine and knead until smooth and elastic and add butter after 8 minutes of kneading. (i knead by hand so, dissolve yeast and sugar into water, add in flour then salt, combine and add in butter to knead until smooth and elastic about 15minutes.)
2)proof for 80 minutes or until double.
3) knead a few times to remove the air and divide into 12 equal pieces (or 6 pieces if u prefer bigger ones)and rest for 15 minutes.
4) shape the dough into round or into hot dog buns.
5) proof on greased baking pan for 30 minutes. (i proof for 1 hr for bigger and softer buns)
6) brush with egg wash (one beaten egg) and cut slit lengthwise with a sharp knife. (i soak the knife in water for smooth cut)
7) prepare filling by mixing all the ingredients together.
7) pipe filling on the slit and bake in preheated oven at 180c for 15 minutes.
