Potato Pinwheel Buns








Potato Pinwheel Buns

Ingredients:

For the buns:
1-1/4 cup whole milk
2 tablespoons of sugar
2-1/2 teaspoons of active dry yeast
1 teaspoon salt
3-1/2 tablespoons of butter
3-1/2 cups of all purpose flour and extra for dusting

For the filling:
2 medium sized potatoes boiled, peeled, and mashed
2 green chilies sliced
1/8th teaspoon asafetida
Cilantro to garnish
Salt to taste
1 teaspoon mustard seeds
1 sprig curry leaves
1 tablespoon oil

Optional:
Sesame seeds
Lemon juice

For the filling:

Boil, peel and mash up the potatoes and set aside.  Heat oil in a skillet and add mustard seeds and let them pop, next add in asafetida, curry leaves, and green chilies and fry.  Now add the potatoes along with salt and turmeric powder and mix well.  Add some lemon juice (optional) and garnish with cilantro and set aside.

For the buns:

Begin by warming up milk to about 110 degrees Fahrenheit, add yeast and sugar and let it activate for about 8 minutes.

Melt butter and set aside.

In a mixing bowl, add sifted all purpose flour and salt and mix well, next add in the yeast mixture and butter and knead it to a soft dough.  If the dough gets very sticky add more flour.

Once the dough has come together, place it in a greased bowl and cover it with a cling wrap or a muslin cloth and let it rise in warm spot in your kitchen for about 1 to 1-1/2 hours.

Once the dough has doubled in size, punch it down and roll out to ¼ inch thickness and spread the potato mix evenly.  Roll in tightly and seal the edge using water or milk.

Now take a knife greased with some oil and cut into equal parts and place them on a baking tray.

Brush the top with some milk and sprinkle some sesame seeds and bake until golden brown in color.

Garnish with some cilantro and serve hot.
