Instructions

Step 1: Prepare the Dough

1. Combine Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, pour in the granulated sugar, dry yeast, and salt. Next, add the warm water and vegetable oil. Mix well until combined.
2. Add Flour: Gradually add the flour to the mixture, stirring continuously until a dough forms.
3. Knead Dough: Knead the dough until it is soft and smooth. Pour a little oil on the prepared dough to prevent it from sticking to the bowl. Cover the bowl with foil and leave the dough to rise in a warm place for 30 minutes.

Step 2: Shape the Dough

4. Prepare Dough Balls: Once the dough has risen and become fluffy and elastic, dust it with a little flour. Place it on a clean surface, work it out, and then divide it into 6 equal parts. Shape each part into small balls and place them on a tray. Cover with foil to prevent drying.

Step 3: Roll and Fill the Dough

5. Roll Dough: Using a rolling pin, gradually roll each dough ball into a rectangle.
6. Add Filling: Coat the rolled-out dough with tomato paste. Sprinkle grated cheddar cheese and chopped fresh parsley evenly over the tomato paste.

Step 4: Shape the Spirals

7. Form Spirals: Roll each rectangle into a roll shape. Pinch the ends together with your fingers to seal, then cut the roll in half lengthwise with a knife. Twist the two halves together to form a propeller shape.
8. Butter and Assemble: Brush the spirals with melted butter. Place them side by side on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Cut the spirals into small pieces.

Step 5: Bake

9. Bake Spirals: Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F). Bake the spirals for 25-30 minutes, or until they are golden and crispy.
