Whole Wheat Buns Stuffed With Spicy Minced Cauliflower (Keema)

P1060376

Hi!

I have always said that baking is a great stress reliever and have always used it for the same. I mentioned in my previous posts that the temperatures are soaring high here and kitchen does grill you most of the times and I try to conveniently escape the heat by cooking quick meals.

In my attempt to do so I experimented with Cauliflower Keema and after I relished it’s awesome taste, I realised that it has multi purpose use, will be a great stuffing for a bun and  make a great snack/ breakfast item.

To enjoy perfectly stuffed buns one must take care of the two things,  firstly the softness of the bun and secondly the filling or the stuffing. If the stuffing is not good the buns tastes bland and chewy buns can spoil the preparation completely. I have used whole wheat flour in my preparation which does make the bun slightly dense as compared to the APF ones but are healthy to eat.

I made the buns in the evening and gave the younger one to eat as an evening snack along with some chocolate milk. I then packed a few for my lunch box  and gladly  could share it with my colleagues the next day and every one praised the preparation. They could not believe that they were home made.Smile

Both the recipes, Gobhi Keema and the Stuffed Buns are keepers. One can check the recipe of Gobhi Keema in my other blog Kitchen – Basics.

Ingredients for The Bun

2 cups APF

2 cups whole wheat flour

a teaspoon salt

2tbsp butter/oil

1-1/4 cups luke warm milk

2tbsp sugar

3tsp yeast

flour for dusting

olive oil for greasing

milk/ egg wash

Method

Using the ingredients above make a smooth, soft, elastic dough. ( Detailed post on making a bread dough can be read here and here).

Let the dough rise in a warm place (1st rise) for about 30 minutes and then punch down the dough and divide it into  8-10 equal portions.

Stuff each individual portion with 1-2tbsp of Gobhi Keema and seal them properly from all sides.

Let the stuffed buns rise again (2nd rise) for about 15 minutes.

Apply milk wash.

Bake in  a preheated oven for 15-20 minutes at 180C.

Cool and serve.

The stuffing part sounds so good.

I have never tried freezing the buns dear as they vanish fast from the table. I guess u can freeze the dough for a week and use it.
