Wholemeal bread


I bought a packet of wholemeal flour from Coles (coles smart buy) yesterday because I wanted to try out the wholemeal bread recipe using my bread machine. Although the bread turn out well, regrettably it  does not taste as good. The texture is not flaky like sweet buns or Hokkaido or Asian bread. It is very dense and heavy just like western bread. I think it would nice if taken with sausages or bacon  for a full meal but not with butter or jam for breakfast.

Ingredients:
260ml water
4 tsp vegetable oil
1 teaspoons salt
40g brown sugar
340g whole meal flour
2 tablespoons nonfat dry milk
1½ teaspoons active dry yeast

Preparation:
Place ingredients in bread pan. When adding the yeast last, make a small well with your finger to place the yeast. This will insure the proper timing of the yeast reaction. Use Whole Wheat or Timed Cycle, or according to manufacturer's directions. (I use the basic settings)

Butter Milk Buns- 奶油包

Butter Milk Buns are very popular in Malaysia and Brunei. When I tried to look for it in Perth, I could find any. I guessed this must be another Malaysian creation. This is my 2nd attempt with the fillings. The first filling recipes which I copied from a US website was totally useless and a failure. This time I used the recipe from a Brunei friend. It was a success. The Bun dough recipe was from Kuala Terengganu, a specialty over there. The Bun was very soft even after it cooled down. The butter milk was very nice as well. Two of the fillings in my buns burst during baking but that was because I did not cover up the dough well and it leaked out. Rest of the Buns were perfect. *makes 11pcs of medium size Buns Gelatinised dough 50g bread flour 35ml hot boiling water 1.
