Ingredients
- 1 2/3 cups all-purpose flour
- 3.4 fl oz water
- 3.4 fl oz milk (non-dairy milk also works)
- 1 3/4 tbsp sunflower oil (olive oil also works)
- 1 tsp fine salt
- 2 tsp instant baking powder for savory preparations
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
Steps
In a bowl place all the ingredients: flour, water, milk, oil, salt, baking powder and baking soda. Mix the mixture with a fork until you obtain a soft, workable dough. Then let it rest for 10 minutes (the short rest is my secret).
If you use a pan like mine, the one in the photo (click this link to see it) brush it with a little olive oil, then in each compartment place 1 heaping tablespoon of batter.
If instead you use a nonstick skillet, brush it lightly with olive oil, then pour 1 heaping tablespoon of batter for each roll, spacing them apart.
Cook the rolls until they are golden and well puffed (about 2-3 minutes), then flip them and finish cooking.
Let them cool slightly before serving or filling them to your taste.
