In a small saucepan, melt the butter over low heat, then add the milk and warm it to about 40°C (104°F). Remove from heat and whisk in the sugar until dissolved.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, yeast, and salt.
Add the warm milk mixture and an egg into the flour mixture. Mix until a dough forms.
Transfer the dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead for about 8-10 minutes until smooth and elastic.
Lightly oil a bowl with the vegetable oil, place the dough in the bowl, and cover it with a damp cloth. Let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour or until doubled in size.
Punch down the risen dough and divide it into 12 equal portions. Shape each portion into a round ball.
Place the buns onto a baking tray lined with parchment paper, ensuring they have enough space to expand.
Cover the tray with a cloth and let the buns proof for about 30 minutes until they double in size again.
Preheat the oven to 190°C (375°F).
Bake the buns for about 15-20 minutes until they are golden brown on top.
Once baked, remove the buns from the oven and let them cool slightly on a wire rack before serving.
