Sweet enriched dough
300g strong white flour
2.5ml salt
30g caster sugar
10g fresh yeast
100ml milk
1 large egg
60g softened butter-unsalted
Put the flour, salt, and sugar into a mixing bowl, then crumble in the yeast. Pour on the milk and add the egg. Mix together to form a soft dough then add the softened butter. Turn out onto a work surface and knead for 3-5mins. Don't be alarmed if the dough is rather soft and sticky! Use a plastic scraper to assist with the kneading.
When the dough is silky and elastic it's ready to set-a-side to rise. Return to the bowl and cover. Leave for 1½-2 hours or over night in the fridge.
It's now ready to form. If the dough was left to rise in the fridge, allow time for it to return to room temp.
