Preheat your oven to 400Β°F (200Β°C). Grease or line a 9x13-inch baking dish with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the warm water (approximately 110Β°F/43Β°C) with the sugar and active dry yeast. Stir gently and let it sit for 5 minutes until the mixture becomes frothy.
Add the salt and vegetable oil to the yeast mixture, and stir to combine.
Gradually add the all-purpose flour, one cup at a time, mixing well after each addition. Once the dough starts to pull away from the sides of the bowl, transfer it to a floured surface.
Knead the dough for about 3-4 minutes until it becomes smooth and elastic. Avoid over-kneading as this can make the rolls dense.
Divide the dough into 12 equal portions and shape each portion into a smooth ball.
Place the dough balls evenly in the prepared baking dish, leaving a small space between them to allow for spreading.
Cover the pan loosely with a clean kitchen towel and let the rolls rise in a warm place for 10 minutes.
Bake the rolls in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the tops turn golden brown.
Optional: Brush the warm rolls with melted butter for extra flavor and softness.
Serve warm and enjoy!
