Ingredients

  • FOR THE DOUGH
  • Milk warm-1 cup
  • Flour-3 ¼ cup
  • Eggs-2
  • Butter melted-1/4 cup.
  • Sugar- 1 tbsp.
  • Salt-1 1/2 tsp.

  • Egg yolks whisked -2
  • Sausages- 20 15 cm /6 inch in length
  • Jack cheese grated-150 gm*

Instructions

  • In a small bowl dissolve the yeast and sugar in the warm milk.
  • In a large bowl combine the remaining ingredients ( butter, eggs, flour and salt), then add the yeast mixture and mix until you get soft dough. Transfer the dough on a lightly floured surface and knead for 5 minutes or until it is smooth and elastic. Put it back into a lightly buttered bowl, cover with cling wrap and allow to rise for 1 hour in a warm place or till the dough is doubled in size.

  • In the meantime, cut each sausage down the middle to make a slit. Stuff the sausages with the grated Jack cheese and keep aside.
  • Turn out the dough onto a lightly floured surface, deflate it and divide into 20 equal pieces.
  • Using a rolling pin, roll each piece into a long cylinder, about 35 cm in length or long enough to wrap a sausage about 3 times.
  • Wrap each stuffed sausage and place on a baking tray lined with parchment paper, keeping 2 inches/ 5 cm between the rolls. Allow to rise until doubled in size, about 20-30 min.
  • Preheat your oven to 350 F/ 176 C with the rack in the lower medium position.
  • Generously brush the sausage rolls with egg wash, sprinkle with black sesame seeds and bake for 15-20 minutes or until golden brown.
