Instructions
- Wash the malunggay leaves the pat them dry before chopping them coarsely.
- In a large bowl, mix together flour, sugar, and salt. Add chopped malunggay leaves and mix until well incorporated.
- Make a well in the center and add egg, oil, water, and instant dry yeast. Mix until well blended.
- Lightly sprinkle a flat and clean surface with flour until fully covered. Knead the dough until it becomes smooth and elastic.
- Form dough into a ball then lightly oil the dough ball. Place in a clean and dry bowl. Cover with a plastic wrap and let it rise until the dough ball doubles in size, about 30 mins to 1 hour, depending on how warm it is.
- Lightly punch the dough to release gas bubbles. Place dough on a flat surface and divide into 2. Roll them into logs then divide each log into 8 equal portions. Roll each portion into small balls. Set aside.
- Sprinkle the breadcrumbs onto a flat and clean surface. Roll the dough balls in the breadcrumbs until fully covered and then arrange them on a baking sheet. With a clean kitchen towel, cover the dough balls and let them rise until their size doubles about 20-30 mins.
- Bake in a preheated 185°C/365°F oven for 15 mins or until the sides are golden brown.
- Remove from the oven and enjoy!
Notes
- If using active dry yeast, the water temperature should only range from 105°F/40°C to 110°F/43°C. Do not use hot water as it may kill the yeast. To proof the yeast: Take 1 cup of the lukewarm warm and 1 tsp sugar from the recipe. Add the yeast to it and let it bloom for 5 minutes before adding it to the flour mixture
- To know if you've kneaded the dough adequately is by doing the "windowpane test". Take a piece of the dough and stretch it into a thin square film with your fingers. The dough must be thin enough to let the light pass through without breaking.
