Dough

Topping

Method

Dough Preparation

  1. 1

    Activate Yeast

    In a small bowl, combine warm water and sugar. Sprinkle the yeast on top. Let it sit for about 5 minutes until it becomes frothy.

  2. 2

    Mix Dough

    In a large mixing bowl, combine flour and salt. Add the frothy yeast mixture and olive oil. Mix until a dough forms.

  3. 3

    Knead Dough

    Turn the dough onto a floured surface and knead for about 8-10 minutes until smooth and elastic.

  4. 4

    Let it Rise

    Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover with a cloth, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour or until doubled in size.

Filling Preparation

  1. 5

    Cook Filling

    In a skillet over medium heat, add chopped onion and garlic. Sauté until onions are translucent, about 3-4 minutes.

  2. 6

    Add Beef and Vegetables

    Add ground beef to the skillet. Cook until browned. Stir in bell pepper, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Cook for an additional 5 minutes.

  3. 7

    Add Cheese

    Remove from heat and stir in cheddar cheese until melted and well combined.

Assembly and Baking

  1. 8

    Preheat Oven

    Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

  2. 9

    Shape Buns

    Once the dough has risen, punch it down and divide it into 12 equal pieces. Roll each piece into a ball, then flatten slightly. Place a spoonful of filling in the center and fold the dough over to seal.

  3. 10

    Place on Baking Sheet

    Place the buns seam-side down on a greased baking sheet. Brush the tops with beaten egg and sprinkle with sesame seeds.

  4. 11

    Bake

    Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes until golden brown.

  5. 12

    Cool and Serve

    Remove the buns from the oven and let them cool slightly before serving. Enjoy your Buns Dorl!
