Step 1
Weigh out and mix together all the ingredients using a wooden spoon.It should form a rough and sticky dough – once all theflour is mixed in,cover it with a sheet of cling film. Leave it to rest for about half an hour.
Step 2
Once rested, fold the dough over inside the bowl until you’ve forced allthe air out of it. Re-cover with cling film and leave for another half hour.Whilst it’s resting, grease a baking tray with a little oil.
Step 3
Now, you’re ready to make some rolls. First, turn your dough out onto asurface and fold all the air out, just like before. Then, cut it into 12 roughlyequal pieces.
Step 4
Make one hand into a ‘cupped’ shape – like you were trying to carrywater in it. Place your handupside down on a piece of divided doughand make little circlesuntil your dough comes together into a ball. Place them asyou ‘roll’ them onto your baking tray.
Step 5
Brush the rolls with a little oil and place a sheet of cling film on top ofthem. Slide them into the fridge to rest overnight
The Next morning:
Step 6
Preheat the oven to 220C (200C fan) about 15 minutes as soon as you getup.
Step 7
When the oven’s hot, remove the cling film and bake the rolls for 15-20minutes until ‘well-fired’.
Top Tips:
- For extra lightness, fold all the air out of your dough every 15 minutesinstead of every 30 minutes.
- Try to use as little flour as possible when shaping: you need it to stick toyour surface a little bit to get a tight ball!
Enjoy!
