Ingredients
  

  • 325 g Flour (2 1/2 cups)loosely packed
  • 150 ml Slightly warm milk (not hot) (1/2 cup +2 tbsp)
  • 1 Egg
  • 50 g Butter (3 1/2 tbsp)
  • 6 g Yeast (instant/active dried yeast) (2 tsp)
  • 30 g Sugar (2 1/2 tbsp)
  • 6 g Salt (1 tsp)

Instructions
 

PREPARE THE ONE HOUR DINNER ROLL DOUGH

  • Into a bowl,lets add all our ingredients together and mix them to form a shaggy mass of dough.
    Add the milk, sugar, yeast, egg, salt, butter and flour and mix them together.
    Transfer the dough on to a clean work surface. Knead the dough until the dough become soft and elastic.
    Only a well kneaded dough can produce soft and fluffy dinner rolls .
    If properly kneaded, the dough should stretch, without tearing or breaking, into a thin membrane that you can see through.

DIVIDE AND SHAPE THE DOUGH

  • Once our dinner roll dough is ready, divide the dough into 15 equal pieces.For more precision, I weighed each of them and they were 40-41 g in weight.
    Roll each piece of dough into small balls.Tuck in the edges towards the centre and roll the balls into small round balls.
    Place the rolls into a nonstick baking tray or on to parchment lined baking tray or on to a well greased baking tray.

PROOF THE ONE HOUR DINNER ROLL DOUGH

  • Cover the baking tray with a cling film or using a damp tea towel.
    Place the baking tray onto a warm oven (not hot).
  • How to set the oven for fast proofing of bread dough ?
    First turn on the oven onto the lowest temperature.In my oven its is 50 C or 120 F .
    Once it reaches 50 C or 120 F, we can turn off the oven.
    Now open the oven door and place the baking tray inside the oven and then close the door.
    Opening the oven door will lower the heat a bit, and that is fine (we are looking for around 30 C or 85 F).
  • After 25 minutes of proofing, take the baking tray out.
    You will see the rolls have risen really well.
  • Now start preheating your oven to 180 C or 350 F.
  • Just before taking the rolls into the oven, brush the top of the rolls with egg wash.

BAKE THE ONE HOUR ROLLS

  • Bake the one hour rolls in a 350 F or 180 C preheated oven for 20-22 minutes.
    If the dinner rolls are under-baked, the inside will be doughy and they smell yeasty. So bake sufficiently for 20-22 minutes.
    At around 17 minutes the top start to get browned it doesn’t mean that they are done.Wait for the yeast rolls to get baked completely.
  • Brush the top of rolls with some melted butter.
    This will make the crust even softer and will add a nice buttery flavor.
    Transfer on to a cooling rack.
    Serve while they are fresh and warm.

Notes

Make sure the dough is kneaded well. Only a well kneaded dough can make soft dinner rolls.
Make sure the rolls have puffed up really well, before taking them into the oven. This rising time may vary according to the ambient temperature.
Bake the rolls sufficiently for 20-22 minutes. If they are underbaked, they will smell yeasty and the center will be gummy.
