How to Make Yema Bread Rolls

✅Ingredients

For The Bread
1 ½ teaspoons active dry yeast
¾ cup milk, heated to a temperature of 105 to 110 F
1 tablespoon powdered sugar
6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted and kept warm
¼ cup sugar
2 eggs
2 cups flour
¼ teaspoon salt

For The Yema
1 small potato, peeled and quartered
1 cup condensed milk
4 teaspoons milk
eggs (remaining from making the dough)

✅Instructions

In a small bowl, combine yeast, powdered sugar, and 2 tablespoons of the warm milk. Stir well and let stand for about 15-20 minutes until foamy and thick.

In a bowl, beat the eggs and measure out 5 tablespoons. Reserve the remaining beaten eggs to make the yema.

In a large bowl, combine sugar and the 5 tablespoons of eggs. Stir until sugar is incorporated.

Add the remaining warm milk, the yeast, and ¼ cup of the flour. Stir the mixture until smooth, then let it stand for about 2-3 minutes.

Combine the remaining flour and salt and add to the bowl. Stir with a wooden spoon for 7 minutes, or until it forms a smooth, shiny dough. The dough will be very sticky. Do not add any flour.

Add 2 tablespoons of the warm, melted butter, then, using your hands, mix it into the dough. Mix for about 5 minutes, incorporating the butter into the dough until it is soft, smooth, and very shiny.

Place the dough in a lightly greased bowl and let it rise for 1 ½ hours, or until doubled in bulk. Knead the dough briefly just to deflate. Place it back in the bowl and chill in the fridge for one hour.

Make The Yema Filling:
In a saucepan over medium, combine potato and enough water to cover. Bring to a boil and cook until very tender. Drain the potatoes and mash with the 4 teaspoons of milk until smooth. Set aside.

In a medium saucepan over medium heat, add condensed milk, 4 tablespoons of the mashed potato, and the remaining egg from the dough ingredients.

Stir the mixture constantly until thick and spreadable, about 15 minutes. Remove from heat and allow to cool.

Assemble The Yema Bread Rolls
Grease a 9-inch round pan with melted butter. Set aside.

Deflate the dough by lightly kneading, then divide it into 15 portions. Lightly flour your hands and work surface as needed.

Roll each portion into a smooth ball and then flatten with your palms until it is about ¼ inch thick.

Spoon about half a tablespoon of the yema filling in the center of the flattened dough. Fold and stretch the edges of the dough over the filling, then pinch the end while twisting it slightly to seal. Repeat with the other portions.

Arrange the filled dough on the greased baking pan seam side down. Space them close to one another. Brush with the remaining melted butter, then cover with a lightly buttered piece of plastic wrap. Let rise for 1 ½ hours.

Place your rack in the lowest position inside the oven. Preheat oven to 400 F.

Set the baking pan on a baking sheet and place it in the oven. Bake for 5 minutes, then lower the temperature to 375 F. Bake for another 15 minutes or until the tops of the buns are nicely golden.
