Savory sausage and cheese yeast rolls

Tip: tap a step to mark it as done.

1. Make the dough

   Stir the yeast into a little of the lukewarm milk. Mix both flours with the salt, then add the yeast mixture, remaining milk, egg, and oil. Knead into a smooth, supple dough. Cover and let rise in a warm place for about 1 hour, until doubled in size.

2. Prepare the filling

   Pass the sausage and garlic through a meat grinder, or finely chop them in a food processor, then mix with the softened Hera to make a spread. Peel the boiled potatoes.

3. Shape the rolls

   Divide the risen dough into two portions and roll each into a rectangle about 5 mm thick. Spread with the sausage mixture, grate the potatoes over it, and sprinkle with cheese. Roll up the dough starting from a long side.

4. Slice

   Cut the logs diagonally into pieces about 3 cm wide and place on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Brush with the beaten egg yolk and sprinkle with cheese.

5. Bake

   Bake in an oven preheated to 180 °C (350 °F) for about 25 minutes, until golden brown.

Tip: Slice the rolls with a sharp knife or thread to keep from squashing them. You can use butter instead of Hera for a more delicate filling.
