Fluffy Cheese and Herb Stuffed Buns
Table of Contents
Ingredients:
For the Dough:

Dry yeast – 10g (1 pack)
Sugar – 1 tablespoon (20g)
Milk – 1.5 cups (300ml), warm
Water – ½ cup (100ml), warm
Oil – 100ml (about ½ cup or 1 tea glass)
Egg white – 1 (reserve the yolk for later)
Vinegar – 1 tablespoon (10ml)
Flour – 5.5 cups (660g), all-purpose
Salt – 1 teaspoon (8g)
To Grease the Dough:

Butter – 150g, melted
For the Filling:

Cheese – Crumbled or grated (use your favorite type like feta, mozzarella, or a mixture)
Fresh parsley – Chopped
For the Topping:

Egg yolk – 1 (reserved from earlier)
Milk – 1 teaspoon
Step-by-Step Instructions:
Step 1: Prepare the Dough

Activate the Yeast: In a small bowl, combine 10g of dry yeast, 1 tablespoon of sugar, and 100ml of warm water. Stir gently and let it sit for about 5-10 minutes, or until the mixture becomes frothy. This means the yeast is activated and ready to use.
Mix Wet Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine 1.5 cups of warm milk, 100ml of oil, 1 egg white (reserve the yolk for later), 1 tablespoon of vinegar, and the activated yeast mixture. Stir well until all the ingredients are fully incorporated.
Add Dry Ingredients: Gradually add 5.5 cups of flour and 1 teaspoon of salt into the wet mixture, stirring with a wooden spoon or using your hands. Mix until a soft dough begins to form.
Knead the Dough: Transfer the dough to a lightly floured surface and knead for about 8-10 minutes until the dough is smooth, soft, and elastic. If the dough is too sticky, add a little more flour, a tablespoon at a time, until it’s manageable but still soft.
Let the Dough Rise: Shape the dough into a ball and place it in a greased bowl. Cover the bowl with a clean kitchen towel or plastic wrap, and let the dough rise in a warm place for about 1-1.5 hours, or until it doubles in size.

Step 2: Prepare the Filling

Mix the Filling: While the dough is rising, prepare the filling by combining your favorite cheese (crumbled or grated) with fresh chopped parsley in a small bowl. Set aside. You can adjust the amount of filling based on how cheesy you want the buns to be.
Step 3: Shape the Buns

Divide the Dough: Once the dough has risen, punch it down to release the air. Transfer the dough to a lightly floured surface and divide it into equal portions, depending on the size of the buns you want. For medium-sized buns, divide the dough into 10-12 portions.
Shape and Fill the Buns: Take each portion and roll it into a ball. Flatten the ball slightly and place a spoonful of the cheese and parsley mixture in the center. Fold the edges of the dough over the filling and pinch them together to seal, forming a bun. Place the filled buns, seam side down, on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Grease the Buns: Once all the buns are shaped, brush each one generously with melted butter to give them extra softness and flavor.
Step 4: Let the Buns Rise Again

Second Rise: Cover the baking sheet with a clean towel and let the buns rise again for about 20-30 minutes in a warm place. This second rise ensures the buns will be fluffy and light when baked.
Step 5: Bake the Buns

Preheat the Oven: While the buns are rising, preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F).
Brush with Egg Wash: In a small bowl, whisk together the reserved egg yolk with 1 teaspoon of milk. Brush the tops of the buns with the egg wash to give them a golden, glossy finish.
Bake: Place the buns in the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown and the buns are cooked through.
Cool Slightly: Once baked, remove the buns from the oven and let them cool slightly on a wire rack before serving.

Step 6: Serve

Enjoy Warm: Serve the fluffy cheese and herb stuffed buns warm. They’re perfect on their own or alongside a bowl of soup, a fresh salad, or as part of a breakfast spread.
Cooking Tips:
Type of Cheese: You can use a variety of cheeses for the filling, depending on your preference. Feta, mozzarella, cheddar, or a mixture of soft and hard cheeses work well.
Vinegar in the Dough: The addition of vinegar helps to tenderize the dough and gives the buns a slight tang, which complements the savory cheese filling.
Make-Ahead Tip: You can prepare the dough ahead of time and store it in the refrigerator overnight. Just bring it to room temperature and allow it to rise before shaping the buns.
Additional Fillings: Feel free to add other ingredients to the filling, such as chopped olives, sun-dried tomatoes, or sautéed spinach, to enhance the flavor.
Storage:
Refrigeration: Store any leftover buns in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat them in the oven at 160°C (320°F) for 5-10 minutes to refresh them.
Freezing: You can freeze the unbaked buns after shaping them. Place them on a tray to freeze until solid, then transfer them to a freezer-safe bag. When ready to bake, thaw the buns in the refrigerator and let them rise before baking as directed.

Cheesy Beef and Potato Casserole Recipe

Ingredients

Serves 6-8

• 4 medium potatoes (peeled and cut into chunks)
• Water (enough to boil potatoes)
• 1 tsp (5 g) salt (for boiling potatoes)
• 1 medium onion (finely chopped)
• 1-2 tbsp olive oil (for cooking)
• 1-2 cloves garlic (minced)
• 1 carrot (diced)
• 2 stalks celery (diced)
• 450 g (1 lb) ground beef
• Salt and black pepper (to taste)
• ½ tsp (2.5 g) smoked paprika
• 1 zucchini (thinly sliced)
• 150 g (⅓ lb) cherry tomatoes (halved)
• 28 g (2 tbsp) butter
• 28 g (2 tbsp or 1 oz) all-purpose flour
• 240 ml (1 cup) milk
• Fresh dill (chopped, to taste)
• 113 g (4 oz) mozzarella cheese (shredded)

Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Cook the Potatoes

Start by peeling and cutting the potatoes into evenly sized chunks to ensure even cooking. Place the potatoes in a large pot and add enough water to cover them. Add 1 teaspoon of salt to the water, then bring it to a boil over medium-high heat. Allow the potatoes to cook for 20-30 minutes until they are fork-tender.

Once the potatoes are cooked, drain the water and mash them until smooth. Set the mashed potatoes aside while you prepare the rest of the casserole.

2. Prepare the Meat Filling

In a large skillet, heat 1-2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat. Add the finely chopped onion and sauté until it becomes translucent, about 3-4 minutes. Stir in the minced garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant.

Next, add the diced carrot and celery to the pan, cooking for 5-7 minutes until softened. These vegetables add both flavor and texture to the casserole.

Add the ground beef to the pan, breaking it up with a spatula as it cooks. Continue to cook until the beef is browned and no longer pink. Season the mixture with salt, black pepper, and ½ teaspoon of smoked paprika for a subtle smoky depth.

Once the beef is cooked through, stir in the thinly sliced zucchini and halved cherry tomatoes. Cook for an additional 5 minutes until the vegetables are soft and everything is well combined. Set the meat and vegetable mixture aside.

3. Prepare the White Sauce

In a small saucepan, melt 28 grams (2 tablespoons) of butter over medium heat. Once melted, stir in the flour and cook for 1-2 minutes to form a roux. This step helps thicken the sauce while adding a rich, nutty flavor.

Gradually whisk in the milk, ensuring there are no lumps. Continue to cook the sauce, stirring constantly, until it thickens to a creamy consistency, about 5 minutes. Season the sauce with salt and pepper, then stir in the freshly chopped dill for a bright, herby flavor. Set the sauce aside.

4. Assemble the Casserole

Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F).

In a large casserole dish, spread the mashed potatoes evenly across the bottom, creating a thick, comforting base. Next, spoon the meat and vegetable mixture over the mashed potatoes, ensuring an even layer.

Pour the prepared white sauce over the top of the beef and vegetables, allowing it to seep through the layers and bind everything together. Finally, sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese evenly over the entire casserole, adding a layer of cheesy goodness that will melt to perfection in the oven.

5. Bake the Casserole

Place the assembled casserole in the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the cheese is melted, golden, and bubbly. The edges should be slightly crisp, with the center hot and delicious.

6. Serve

Once the casserole is finished baking, remove it from the oven and allow it to cool for a few minutes before slicing. This will help the layers set, making it easier to serve. Garnish with extra fresh dill if desired, and enjoy this cheesy, hearty meal.
