  • 1 tbsp yeast
  • 1 tbsp sugar
  • 1 1/2 cups warm water

Directions:

  1. In a small bowl, sprinkle yeast and sugar over 4 tablespoons of the warm water and leave it for 15 minutes.
  2. Place the flour in a bowl and make a well in the center. Pour in the yeast mixture and the remaining water. Mix everything to form a dough.
  3. Turn it onto a floured board and knead until smooth.
  4. Return dough to the bowl, cover and let it stand in a warm place for about an hour or until doubled in size.
  5. Punch down, cover again and let it stand for 20 minutes longer.
  6. Knead the dough again and shape into rolls.
  7. Bring the water in the bottom of a steamer to a boil. Place the rolls in the steamer, leaving a 1- inch gap between them. Cook for 10 minutes or until firm and cooked through.
  8. Serve them hot.
