Instructions
Prepare the dough
In to a bowl add in the milk (lukewarm or ideally around 95 F) yeast,sugar,salt and egg.Combine them together.Then add in the butter (preferably softened, at room temperature which is easy to blend).Now add the flour into this and combine everything together.Now transfer the dough on to a clean work surface and we need to knead the dough until it forms a smooth and elastic dough.
Rest the Dough
Keep the well kneaded dough on the counter and cover it with a bowl.Let the dough sit and relax for 30 minutes.
Divide and Shape the dough
After 30 minutes of resting the dough, let's place it on a lightly floured work surface.Roll the dough using a rolling pin into an approximate square shape of 27 cm x 30 cm x 1 cm.So that the sheet has a thickness of 1 cm or 1/4 -1/2 inch.Brush the top of dough with softened butter or melted butter.Divide the recatngle into equal piecesTo make it easier for you ,here is how I divided the sheet.5 stripes from one side and 3 from other side to get 15 equal pieces.(It is not necessary to follow the exact measurements or stress over this step; our intention is to make them as even in shape as possible.The more similar they are in size, the more even they will get baked)Now Fold the dough on to itself, to 3/4 of the length as in the video.And place the rolls on the prepared baking tray (greased or lined with parchment paper) with the smooth surface on top.This will prevent the rolls from unfolding while they proof and bake.
Proofing the dough
Cover the dinner rolls with a plastic film and let them rise for 60-70 minutes or until they puff up really well.
