Directions

1. Prepare the Dough
   • In a large bowl, combine warm milk, warm water, sugar, yeast, and oil. Stir until the yeast and sugar dissolve.
   • Gradually add sifted flour, starting with 3 cups. Add salt, mixing until combined. Slowly add the remaining flour as needed until a soft, slightly sticky dough forms.
   • Knead the dough until smooth, adding a few drops of oil if necessary. Cover and let rise in a warm place for 30-40 minutes until doubled in size.

3. Shape the Rolls
   • Punch down the dough to remove air and divide it into two portions. Roll each portion into a ball.
   • Take one portion, roll it flat, and add a spoonful of filling. Roll the dough over the filling to seal and shape into rolls.
   • Cut into slices for easy serving and place them on a greased baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
4. Glaze and Top
   • In a small bowl, mix the egg yolk, oil, and milk for a glossy finish. Brush each roll with this mixture.
   • Optionally, sprinkle mozzarella cheese on top.
5. Bake the Rolls
