Method

1. Warm the milk² until lukewarm, mix in the yeast and half the sugar, and let sit for 10 minutes until foamy.

2. Add the egg, melted butter⁶, salt, remaining sugar, and flour, then knead into a soft dough.

3. Cover the dough and let rise in a warm place for 45–50 minutes, until it visibly expands.

4. Divide the dough into rounds, add a generous spoonful of jam, and pinch the edges tightly to seal.

5. Heat oil in a pan and fry the rolls seam-side down for 3–4 minutes per side.

6. Remove when golden brown all over, and let rest for 5 minutes.
