These savory triangles filled with ham, corn, and cheese make a welcoming snack for guests and an alternative to open-faced sandwiches. Divide the yeast dough made with oil into two portions, roll it out, and spread it with sour cream mixed with crushed garlic. Top with ham, bacon, red onion, corn, and cheese, then roll up, brush with sour cream mixed with egg yolk, and cut into triangles. Sprinkle with sesame seeds and bake for 15–20 minutes at 180°C (350°F).

Instructions

Tip: tap a step to mark it as done.

  1. Stir the yeast and sugar into the lukewarm milk and let the mixture become foamy. Combine the remaining dough ingredients in a bowl, add the yeast mixture, and knead into a dough.

  2. Divide the dough in half and roll out each half. Spread with sour cream mixed with crushed garlic, then top with ham, bacon, onion, corn, and grated cheese. Roll up each portion.

  3. Brush the tops of the rolls with sour cream mixed with the egg yolk. Cut the rolls into triangles, sprinkle with sesame seeds, and bake at 180°C (350°F) for about 15–20 minutes.

  4. Tip

    About 150 g of filling is enough, but add more to taste if you like; once rolled up, the dough will be generously filled. Divide the dough into two portions because it would be difficult to roll it all out thinly at once.

    Cut the rolled dough diagonally, alternating left and right, to form triangles. Alternatively, cut it into pinwheels 3 cm thick.

Tip: Chop the ham, bacon, and onion as finely as possible so you can slice the rolls with a sharp knife without tearing the dough and the triangles will hold their shape.
