Golden beetroot bread buns

ingredients

• 200 ml water
• 60 ml milk
• 25 g yeast
• 25 g sugar
• 20 g butter
• 1 egg, lightly beaten
• 150 g cake & pastry flour
• 250 g bread flour
• 10 g salt
• 2 spring onions, finely chopped
• ¼ bunch fresh dill, chopped
• 1 tsp turmeric
• 2 (200 g) large golden beetroots, peeled & grated
• 150 g feta cheese, crumbled

Instructions

Preheat oven to 175°C. Heat water with milk, until lukewarm. Pour the liquid into a large bowl add the yeast, sugar and butter. Mix well until the butter melts and ingredients are evenly blended together. Add all remaining ingredients and mix.

Knead the mixture until it becomes a soft, non sticky dough. You may need to add some extra bread flour. Roll the dough into a long, round log and cut into 1½ cm slices. Arrange the slices of dough on baking sheet lined with parchment paper and cover with a towel. Keep the baking sheet in a warm environment until the dough doubles in size.

Once the dough has risen, bake for 20 minutes, until crispy and golden on the outside and cooked on the inside. To check if the bread buns are cooked, gently stick a knife in the centre of one of the buns. If it comes out clean, the bread buns are ready.
