Ingredients

For 6 servings
  • 375 g strong bread flour or plain flour
  • 1 tbsp dried yeast
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 350 ml lukewarm water (not too hot)
  • flour and chia seeds, for sprinkling optional

Makes 6 rolls; one serving is one roll.

Step by step

  1. Put all the ingredients in a bowl and mix into a wet, sticky dough. Cover with a tea towel and leave to rise for 1 hour. To speed it up, heat the oven to 50 °C while you mix, turn it off and put the bowl inside. It should double in size and have bubbles on the surface; you can leave it longer if you like.
  2. Preheat the oven to 230 °C. Using two spoons, scoop up portions of dough and put them on baking paper on a tray. Make 6, leaving a little space between them (it's fine if they touch). Sprinkle with flour and chia seeds; you can also add nuts or herbs.
  3. Put a dish of water at the bottom of the oven to create steam and the tray on the middle shelf. Bake for 25 minutes, until well browned.
  4. They keep in a bag or bread bin, and they can be frozen too.
