Ingredients

• 3.5 cups All-purpose flour
• 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 2.25 teaspoons Instant yeast
• 1 cup Warm milk (110°F / 43°C)
• 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter (melted)
• 1 large Egg
• 1.5 cups Cooked rice
• 1.5 tablespoons Curry powder
• 0.5 cup Frozen peas
• 0.5 cup Carrot (finely diced)
• 1 tablespoon Vegetable oil
• 2 cloves Garlic (minced)
• 0.5 cup Onion (finely chopped)
• 1 serving Egg wash (1 egg whisked with 1 tablespoon water)

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, combine all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, salt, and instant yeast.

Step 2

In a smaller bowl, whisk together warm milk, melted butter, and 1 large egg.

Step 3

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until a soft dough forms.

Step 4

Knead the dough on a lightly floured surface for 8-10 minutes until smooth and elastic. Alternatively, knead using a stand mixer with a dough hook for 5-6 minutes.

Step 5

Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, cover with a clean towel, and let rise for 1 hour or until doubled in size.

Step 6

While the dough is rising, prepare the curry rice filling. Heat vegetable oil in a skillet over medium heat, and sauté the minced garlic and chopped onion until fragrant and translucent (about 2-3 minutes).

Step 7

Add the finely diced carrot and frozen peas to the skillet, cooking for another 3-4 minutes until softened.

Step 8

Stir in the cooked rice and curry powder, mixing well until evenly coated. Season the rice mixture with salt to taste. Allow the filling to cool completely.

Step 9

After the dough has risen, punch it down and divide it into 12 equal portions. Roll each piece into a ball.

Step 10

Flatten each dough ball into a small circle and place about 1-2 tablespoons of the curry rice filling in the center.

Step 11

Pinch the edges of the dough together to seal the filling inside and shape it back into a ball. Place the filled rolls seam-side down on a parchment-lined baking sheet.

Step 12

Cover the rolls loosely with a clean towel and let them rise again for 30 minutes until puffy.

Step 13

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Brush the tops of the rolls with egg wash for a golden finish.

Step 14

Bake the rolls in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes or until they are golden brown and sound hollow when tapped on the bottom.

Step 15

Allow the rolls to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy them warm or at room temperature!
