Mom Ntkozo’s Steam Bread Recipe
Ingredients:
- 1kg of flour
- 3 spoons for sugar
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 sachet yeast
- butter (small amount)
Method
- Pour flour into a large bowl; add your sugar, salt and yeast and mix together
- Add a little bit of water until it becomes a soft dough
- Add some butter to avoid it becoming too sticky
- cover the dough and allow it to rise in the sun
- Boil water on the stove**
- Once your dough has risen, roll it into balls, and put each ball in a small plastic bag.
- steam these rolls for 1hr30
Enjoy as a delicious side with curry, chakalaka or on it’s own!
**You can also cook these rolls inside your curry! In this case, the bags aren’t necessary, and they only need to cook for 30-45 minutes.
