Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams Whole wheat flour
- 10 grams Instant yeast
- 8 grams Salt
- 50 ml Olive oil
- 300 ml Warm water
- 250 grams Minced chicken or tofu
- 1 piece Onion, finely chopped
- 3 pieces Garlic cloves, minced
- 1 teaspoon Ginger, grated
- 2 tablespoons Curry powder
- 1 teaspoon Cumin powder
- 1 teaspoon Coriander powder
- 1 teaspoon Red chili flakes
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons Fresh cilantro, chopped
- Salt to taste
Instructions
In a large bowl, mix whole wheat flour and salt. Create a well in the center.
Add instant yeast, warm water, and olive oil to the well.
Mix the ingredients until a dough forms. Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 10 minutes until smooth and elastic.
Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover with a damp cloth, and let it rise in a warm place until it doubles in size, about 1 hour.
In a pan over medium heat, add a small amount of oil and sauté the chopped onion until translucent.
Add minced garlic, grated ginger, curry powder, cumin powder, coriander powder, and red chili flakes. Cook for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
Add minced chicken or tofu to the pan and cook until fully cooked. Season with salt and lemon juice. Stir in chopped cilantro.
Once the dough has risen, punch it down and divide it into 10 even pieces. Roll each piece into a ball.
Flatten each ball into a disc and place a spoonful of the curry mixture in the center.
Pinch the edges together to seal, forming a bun. Place the buns seam-side down on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Cover the buns with a damp cloth and let them rise for another 20 minutes.
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F).
Bake the curry buns in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes until golden brown on top.
Remove from the oven and allow them to cool slightly before serving.
