Here is a super simple recipe for Garlic rolls

Ingredients for the Dough

Plain Flour- 400 g
Dried yeast- 3 tsp
Salt- 1 tsp
Sugar- 1 tbsp
Olive oil- 2 tbsp
Warm Water- 150 ml

Ingredients for the Garlic Butter

Butter- 100 g( at room temperature)
Mixed dried herbs or finely chopped fresh coriander- 1 tbsp
Garlic- 3 cloves grated
Salt - a pinch.

Method

1. Mix all the ingredients for the dough except oil and knead it into a smooth dough. Adjust the amount of water to get a dough.
2. Then add the oil and knead it again to get a smooth and elastic dough.
3. Place the dough in a clean, oiled bowl, cover it with a cling film and allow it to rise for about 1 hour or until doubled in size.
4. Meanwhile prepare the garlic butter by mixing all the ingredients together and set aside.
5. Take the raised dough, knock the air back and divide the dough into two equal balls. Roll it out into a flat rectangle, spread the garlic butter . Roll it like a swiss roll. Cut the log into two equal portions, then again cut each pieces again into half. Repeat the same for another portion of the dough.
6. Now you can bake this in a square cake tin, loaf tin or a round cake tin. Grease the tin, and arrange the circles inside without touching each other. Apply more garlic butter on top of the bread.
7. Cover the tin and leave it to rise for another 30 minutes.
8. Meanwhile preheat the oven for 350 F. Bake the bread for about 20 to 25 minutes or until golden brown on top.
9. Serve the bread warm with curries and salad or just by itself.
