Brown Rolls

The fist time I made these they turned out like little brown bricks of plasticine. To say they were chewy would have been understatement of the year. But the have improved since and are now the prefect accompaniment for a strong cheddar.

You need - for about 8:

175g strong plain flour
175g wholemeal flour
6g easy blend yeast
pinch of salt
warm water

Sift the flours into a bowl, then tip back in1/2 the 'flakes' left by the wholemeal flour. Mix in the yeast and salt. Make a well in the centre, and gradually stir in the water until a non sticky dough, that leaves the sides of the bowl clean is formed.

Knead the dough thoroughly for 10 minutes. After which, return it to the bowl, score a cross in the top, cover so air tight and leave in a warm place until it has doubled in size.
Next separate the dough into pieces a bit bigger than a golf ball, pat into shape, put on a greased baking tray, cover and leave to rise again. 

Turn the oven on to 210°C.  Around 30 mins later, uncover the rolls, dust the tops lightly with flour and place in the oven for around 15-20 mins. Remove and allow to cool before eating.
