Cuisine: International
Serves: 12 scrolls
Ingredients
- 2 cups wholemeal flour
- 1 cup plain yoghurt
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1 cup grated cheese
- 1 leek, chopped
- 1 egg, beaten (for brushing)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 200°C (390°F). Line a baking tray with parchment paper to prevent the scrolls from sticking.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine 2 cups of wholemeal flour, 1 teaspoon of baking powder, and 1/2 teaspoon of salt. Mix these dry ingredients together until well combined.
- Add 1 cup of plain yoghurt to the dry ingredients. Using a fork or your hands, mix until a soft dough begins to form. If the dough is too sticky, add a little more flour until it reaches a workable consistency.
- Once the dough is formed, turn it out onto a lightly floured surface. Knead gently for about 1-2 minutes until smooth.
- Roll the dough out into a rectangle, approximately 1/2 inch thick. Aim for a size of about 12x10 inches for even scrolls.
- In a separate bowl, combine 1 cup of grated cheese and 1 chopped leek. Spread this mixture evenly over the rolled-out dough, leaving a small border around the edges.
- Starting from one of the long edges, carefully roll the dough tightly into a log shape. Pinch the seams to seal the roll and ensure the filling stays inside.
- Using a sharp knife, cut the rolled dough into 12 equal pieces, about 1 inch thick. Place the scrolls upright on the prepared baking tray, ensuring they are close but not touching.
- Brush the tops of the scrolls with the beaten egg to give them a golden finish while baking.
- Place the baking tray in the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the scrolls are golden brown and cooked through.
- Once baked, remove the scrolls from the oven and let them cool slightly on a wire rack. Serve warm or at room temperature as a delicious snack or side dish.
Tips
- Flour Consistency: If your dough feels too sticky, don’t hesitate to add a bit more wholemeal flour until it reaches a workable consistency. This will make rolling and shaping much easier!
- Cheese Choices: While the recipe calls for grated cheese, feel free to experiment with different types like cheddar, mozzarella, or even a blend for a unique flavor profile.
- Leek Preparation: Ensure your leek is well-cleaned, as dirt can often hide in the layers. Slice it thinly for even distribution throughout the scrolls.
- Rolling Technique: When rolling the dough, try to keep it tight to prevent the filling from spilling out. A tight roll also helps the scrolls maintain their shape while baking.
- Egg Wash: Don’t skip the egg wash! It not only gives the scrolls a beautiful golden color but also adds a slight sheen that makes them look bakery-fresh.
- Serving Suggestions: These scrolls are delicious on their own but pair wonderfully with a fresh salad or a bowl of soup for a complete meal.
- Storage: If you have leftovers, store them in an airtight container. They can be reheated in the oven for a few minutes to regain their delightful texture.Enjoy your baking adventure and savor every bite of these delectable Wholemeal Yoghurt Dough Scrolls!
