Method
- Combine flour, sugar, yeast, salt, and milk powder if using in a large bowl.
- Add the warm liquid and oil or lard, then mix until no dry flour remains. Rest 10 minutes.
- Knead 8–10 minutes until smooth and elastic. The dough should feel soft but not smear across the work surface.
- Cover and let rise until doubled, about 60–75 minutes.
- Press out large bubbles, divide into 12 equal pieces, and shape into compact oval or round rolls.
- Arrange on a lined tray, dust lightly with flour or breadcrumbs, cover, and proof until puffy and nearly doubled.
- Bake at 180°C for 18–22 minutes, until pale golden and about 90–93°C in the centre.
- Cool on a rack for at least 20 minutes before splitting. Serve with cheese, coffee, pancit, soup, or savoury spreads.
