​How to make Ham & Cheese Rolls using Manual / Traditional method:
  • Dissolve yeast in warm water (110-115 degrees F). Stir to dissolve and let stand for 5-10 minutes until bubbly. Set aside. 
  • In a large bowl, combine the milk, sugar, butter, egg yolks and salt. 
  • Blend well then add the yeast mixture. 
  • Add flour to make a moderate stiff dough. **Note: Check the consistency of the dough before putting all the remaining flour. (use of flour depends on the type of flour, milk and the size of the eggs). Dough should be moderate to stiff and elastic. 
  • Knead the dough on a lightly floured surface for about 10 minutes or until dough is smooth & elastic. 
  • Transfer the dough to a greased bowl, cover with a damp cloth and let it rise in a warm place for at least an hour.
  • After rising, transfer the dough onto a lightly floured surface. 
  • Use a dough slicer to divide the dough into 2 equal parts.
  • Shape rolls by rolling into a pizza crust shape. 
  • Spread melted butter over dough. 
  • Cut with pizza cutter into slice shapes.
  • Top with ham and cheese.
  • Roll from outside in. 
  • Place rolls on on lightly greased baking sheet or tray with the end of the roll at the bottom. ( I used silicone baking mat - greasing not required).
  • Cover the tray with a damp cloth and let it rise for 20-30 minutes.
  • Preheat oven to 325 degrees F.
  • Bake for 20-25 minute or until golden on top.
  • Remove form oven.
  • Use a pastry brush to spread melted butter on top.
  • Serve and enjoy!
