Step 1
In a large mixing bowl, combine the warm water and yeast. Let sit for 10 minutes until the mixture is frothy.
Step 2
Add the whole wheat flour, all-purpose flour, salt, and olive oil to the yeast mixture. Mix until a dough forms.
Step 3
Knead the dough on a lightly floured surface for 8-10 minutes, until smooth and elastic.

Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, cover it with a clean cloth, and let rise in a warm place for about 1 hour or until doubled in size.
Step 5
Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F).
Step 6
In a separate bowl, mix together the ricotta cheese, chopped parsley, chopped basil, ground black pepper, and shredded mozzarella cheese for the filling.
Step 7
Punch down the risen dough and divide it into 12 equal portions.
Step 8
Flatten each portion into a disc and place about a tablespoon of the cheese mixture in the center.
Step 9
Fold the edges of the dough over the filling and pinch to seal, forming a ball.
Step 10
Place the filled rolls on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, seam side down.
Step 11
Brush the rolls with beaten egg white for a shiny finish.
Step 12
Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes or until golden brown.
