Method

  • step 1

    Heat 280ml water in a saucepan for a minute until warm but not too hot to stick your finger in (don’t burn yourself!). Remove from the heat, then add 50g butter. Combine the flour, yeast, sugar and 1 tsp salt in a large bowl or a tabletop mixer. Add the warm water and beat to make a soft dough. Knead for 10 mins by hand, or 5 mins in a mixer, until the dough feels stretchy and smooth. Tip into a clean, oiled bowl and cover with oiled cling film. Leave to rise for 1½-2 hrs, or until doubled in size.

  • step 2

    Brush a large baking tray with oil and scatter over the polenta. Knock the air out of the dough. Pinch off small pieces (about the size of a walnut), then roll each piece into a ball and put on the baking tray. Leave a little space between each dough ball.

  • step 3

    Heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Cover the tray with oiled cling film, then prove for 30 mins-1 hr until the dough has doubled in size and the balls are touching. Mix the remaining butter with the garlic. When the rolls are ready to cook, brush the tops with the garlic butter and scatter with the cheeses. Bake for 25-30 mins until the dough balls are cooked through. Leave to cool for 5 mins, then serve.

question

If I want to make the dough but cook it the next day, what is the best way to make this? Should I make the dough then put it in the fridge overnight? or should I let it rise first before placing in the fridge? Also how long should i leave it out of the fridge the next day before cooking?

Hi, thanks for your question. Yes this can be frozen. Defrost in the fridge for a few hours or overnight and then reheat in the oven until warmed through. We hope this helps. Best wishes, BBC Good Food Team.

question

Does anyone know what size baking dish, like shown in the picture? The instructions say use baking tray, but even then no idea of size

Hello! Esther from the food team here. We'd recommend using a 20 x 30 cm tin. Thanks for your question!
