This recipe can be used with lamb, beef or chicken.

  1. Place the flour, salt yeast and sugar in a mixing bowl set with a dough hook keeping the yeast and salt separate.

  4. Next tip the dough onto a lightly floured work surface and fold inwards to knock back into a smooth ball.
  5. Divide into 80g units and then roll the dough using the palm of your hand into rolls or shape into a loaf tin.
