Ingredients:

•For the dough:

3 cups all-purpose flour

2 ¼ tsp (1 packet) instant yeast

2 tbsp sugar

1 tsp salt

¾ cup warm milk

¼ cup warm water

3 tbsp butter, softened

1 egg

•For the filling:

250 g (½ lb) ground beef

1 small onion, finely chopped

1 clove garlic, minced

Salt and black pepper, to taste

1 tsp paprika

1 tsp Worcestershire sauce (optional)

1 cup shredded cheddar or mozzarella cheese

•For topping:

1 egg yolk (for egg wash)

1 tsp milk

Sesame seeds & chopped parsley (optional)

Instructions :

1. Prepare the dough:

In a bowl, mix warm milk, warm water, sugar, and yeast. Let sit for 5–10 minutes until frothy.

Add butter, egg, salt, and flour gradually. Knead until soft and elastic (about 10 minutes).

Cover and let rise for 1 hour or until doubled in size.

2. Make the filling:

In a pan, sauté onions and garlic in a bit of oil until soft.

Add the ground beef, cook until browned, and season with salt, pepper, paprika, and Worcestershire sauce.

Once cooked, let it cool slightly, then mix with shredded cheese.

3. Assemble the buns:

Divide dough into 8–10 equal balls.

Flatten each ball, place a spoonful of the beef-cheese mixture in the center, and pinch to seal.

Place seam side down on a parchment-lined tray.

4. Second rise:

Cover the buns and let rest for 20–30 minutes.

5. Bake:

Brush each bun with egg wash and sprinkle sesame seeds.

Bake at 180°C (350°F) for 18–20 minutes or until golden brown.

6. Finish:

Brush the tops with a little melted butter and sprinkle chopped parsley if desired.

Serve warm and enjoy the gooey cheesy filling!

Whether you’re cooking for family, guests, or just treating yourself, these buns bring the warmth of homemade comfort food to every bite!
