    Egg Buns Recipe

    This recipe is inspired from the egg puff which I had from the near by bakery. Those puffs are stuffed with spicy onion  and egg filling. Since puff pastry dough are not available in my place, I replaced it with regular bun dough.  The cool thing about this dough is you could pretty much stuff anything in it. This makes a awesome snack for kids too.

      @AnonymousYees you can try it with atta..But it will be little dense. but the taste will be good. infact you can use 1/2 maida and 1/2 atta..You cannot substitute atta for every baked goodies.

      Hi aarthi
      i made these buns
      i couldnt get d buns n brown color n upper layer was a crust...

      @Bala VetrivelI used around 1 cup of water, may be a little more. If you didn't get brown colour. You can bake the buns and grill the buns for a min to get nice colour.

Thanks for all your wonderful receipes.I have a small suggestion to make , when you post recipe with ingredients it would be very helpful if you specify ... like how much quantity will this recipe make or how many people it will serve. For eg this recipe will make how many buns. Thanks

      @SAndra RoseI have mentioned that in the written method. After you finished making the dough leave it to rise for 1 hour or till it doubles in size. The after folding leave it to rise for 30 mins..

      Hi AArti,

      I tried this bun yesterday. Filling tasted awesome but bun was little hard and dint get fluffy.. I think reason was in dissolving yeast in water. i use bakers dried yeast. i used normal filter water to dissolve yeast. it dint get dissolved properly.. should we heat the water a bit? if yes can u tell me how much we shud heat? pls suggest.

      @shwetha shenoyyou have to use warm water for yeast. it shouldnot be hot or cold. it should be very warm.
