Ingredients
For the dough:
- 3 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon yeast
- 1 cup warm milk
- 2 tablespoons butter (softened)
For the filling:
- 300g ground beef
- 2 medium potatoes (boiled and mashed)
- 1 small onion (finely chopped)
- 2 cloves garlic (minced)
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- Salt to taste
- 1 tablespoon oil
- 1 cup shredded cheese (mozzarella or cheddar)
Instructions
1. Prepare the Dough
In a large bowl, mix flour, sugar, salt, and yeast. Gradually add warm milk and butter, then knead until you get a soft, smooth dough. Cover and let it rise for about 1 hour, or until doubled in size.
2. Cook the Filling
Heat oil in a pan over medium heat. Add onions and garlic, sauté until fragrant. Add ground beef and cook until browned. Stir in spices, salt, and mashed potatoes. Mix well and let it cool slightly.
3. Assemble the Roll
Roll out the dough into a rectangle on a floured surface. Spread the beef and potato mixture evenly across the dough. Sprinkle shredded cheese on top.
4. Roll and Seal
Carefully roll the dough into a log, sealing the edges tightly to keep the filling inside.
5. Bake
Place the roll on a baking tray lined with parchment paper. Brush with a little milk or egg wash for a golden finish. Bake in a preheated oven at 180°C (350°F) for 25–30 minutes, or until golden brown.
Serving Suggestions
Let the roll cool slightly before slicing. Serve warm with:
- A fresh salad
- Yogurt or garlic sauce
- Tomato dipping sauce
Tips for Success
- Don’t overfill the dough to avoid tearing.
- Let the filling cool before assembling to keep the dough from becoming soggy.
- Add herbs like parsley or oregano for extra flavor.
