Bun / Pav

I was thinking that making bun is very difficult, that too not possible without oven. I was 100% wrong.

Here is the simple recipe of making Bun.

Ingredients:

2 cups Maida/ All purpose flour
1 cup Luke warm Milk
2 TBS Sugar
2 TSP Yeast ( Powdered Yeast )
1/2 TSP Salt
1 TBS Butter
Some Milk for Brushing

Method:

Step 1: Mix Luke warm Milk, Sugar and Yeast in a bowl. Cover it and keep it aside for 5 Minutes. ( This procedure will activate the Yeast )

Step 2: Put 2 cups of Maida, salt and make a soft dough. Add butter and knead for sometime. (Approximately 2-3 Minutes)

Step 3: Tuck the dough, cover it and keep it in the warm place for 1 Hour. ( Dough will be raised)

Step 4: Punch the dough and knead it again for few minutes. Make 8 equal parts of the dough and make balls out of it.

Step 5: Prepare a tray by brushing oil/butter into the bottom and sides of the tray. Place butter paper and brush oil/butter on it again.  ( I did not have square tray so, I put aluminium foil and made it square. You can use round tray also )

Step 6: Pre heat a Pan(cover it) in low flame for 7-10 minutes.

Step 7: Place the prepared balls in the tray .

Step 8: Keep it aside for 15-20 Minutes in the warm place ( Dough will be raised again). Brush the balls with some milk.

Step 9: Place the tray in the pan, cover it and and cook it in the low flame for 25 minutes. ( Check with tooth pick, if it comes out clean bun is ready else continue cooking for few more minutes )

Step 9: Brush some butter on it, Cover it with a towel till it is cooled down then de mould it. Super soft Bun is ready to be served. ( I added some herbs on it, it tasted awesome)
