Method
In a mixing bowl, add all the ingredients for the dough and knead for 10 minutes until a smooth and supple dough forms
Cover and let the dough rise for 1 hour or until doubled in size.
Once the dough doubles in size, punch it and portion the dough into 4 equal sized balls. Start rolling the dough into a 6-7 inch long line. Roll into circular roundels. Put a knot in the dough and tuck both the ends under the dough.
Apply milk/eggwash and bake it for 20-25 minutes on 180°C or until the top is golden brown.
