Method
- 1
Mix. Whisk the milk, cooled melted butter and 1 egg in a large bowl, then tip in the flour and yeast and mix to a shaggy dough with no dry patches. Cover and rest 15 min so the flour hydrates.
- 2
Knead. Add the sugar and salt and knead 8-10 min by machine on medium (or 12 min by hand), until the dough is smooth, stretchy and only slightly tacky.
- 3
Rise. Shape into a ball, return to a lightly greased bowl, cover and leave about 1 h, until doubled.
- 4
Shape. Butter the dish. Cut the dough into 12 pieces of roughly 50 g, curl your palm over each one and roll it on an unfloured worktop into a taut ball. Set them in the dish in three rows of four, cover and leave 30-40 min, until the balls press against each other.
- 5
Bake. Heat the oven to 180 °C (160 °C fan). Brush the tops with the salted beaten egg and bake about 20 min, until deep golden; the centre roll reads 88-90 °C.
- 6
Garlic butter. While the rolls bake, melt the butter with the garlic over low heat for 2 min without letting it colour, then stir in the parsley and the pinch of salt. Spoon it over the hot rolls straight from the oven, let them soak for 5 min and serve warm.
Storage
Keep cooled rolls in an airtight bag at room temperature for up to 2 days. Rewarm at 180 °C for 5 min; freeze for up to 1 month.
