In a large mixing bowl, combine the active sourdough starter and warm water. Mix well until the starter is dissolved.
Add all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, and salt to the bowl. Stir until a shaggy dough forms.
Incorporate the softened butter and egg into the dough. Mix thoroughly until the butter is evenly distributed. The dough will be slightly sticky.
Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for about 8-10 minutes until it becomes smooth and elastic.
Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl and cover it with a clean kitchen towel or plastic wrap. Let it rise at room temperature for 3-4 hours, or until it doubles in size.
Once the dough has risen, punch it down to release any air. Divide the dough into 12 equal portions (approximately 50 grams each).
Shape each portion into a smooth ball and place the rolls onto a greased or parchment-lined baking sheet, spaced slightly apart.
Cover the rolls loosely with plastic wrap or a towel and let them proof for 1-2 hours, or until they double in size and look puffy.
Preheat the oven to 190°C (375°F). Brush the tops of the rolls with milk to give them a glossy finish.
Bake the rolls in the preheated oven for 20-22 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through.
Remove the rolls from the oven and let them cool slightly on a wire rack before serving. Enjoy these tender and flavorful sourdough dinner rolls!
