Homemade Burger Buns

Start by mixing yeast, sugar, milk and hot water. Let it rest for 15 minutes.

Pour the flour and salt into a bowl. Make a hole in the centre of the flour and add the water and yeast mixture, egg and butter.

Mix well. Then knead the dough for 5 minutes until it is smooth. Let the dough rise for at least 1 hour in a warm place.

Once the dough is rested, cut the dough into 4 or 6 equal-sized pieces (90 g for small buns or 110 g for large buns).

Form a ball with each piece. Place the buns on a baking sheet lined with baking paper. Let the buns rise for another 30 minutes to 1 hour.

Before baking the buns, beat the egg yolk and milk with a fork. Apply the mixture over the buns. Sprinkle with sesame seeds.

Bake the buns in the oven at 175°C for 17 to 20 minutes. Let them cool before cutting in half.
