Ingredients

• 250 grams Ground beef
• 1 medium, finely chopped Onion
• 2 cloves, minced Garlic
• 2 tablespoons Soy sauce
• 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
• 1 teaspoon Sugar
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 300 grams All-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon Instant yeast
• 2 tablespoons Sugar (for dough)
• 120 milliliters, warm Milk
• 50 grams, softened Butter
• 1 medium, beaten Egg
• 1 tablespoon Vegetable oil

Directions

Step 1

In a skillet over medium heat, add 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil. Once heated, sauté the finely chopped onion and minced garlic for 2-3 minutes until fragrant.

Step 2

Add the ground beef to the skillet and cook until browned and fully cooked, breaking it apart with a wooden spoon.

Step 3

Stir in the soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, 1 teaspoon of sugar, black pepper, and salt. Mix well and cook for another 2 minutes. Set aside to cool.

Step 4

In a large bowl, mix together the warm milk, instant yeast, and 2 tablespoons of sugar for the dough. Let it sit for 5 minutes until slightly frothy.

Step 5

Add the all-purpose flour, softened butter, and beaten egg to the milk mixture. Stir well until the dough starts to come together.

Step 6

Knead the dough on a lightly floured surface for about 8-10 minutes until it is smooth and elastic. Place the dough in a bowl, cover, and let it rest for 10 minutes.

Step 7

Divide the dough into 8 equal pieces. Roll each piece into a ball and flatten slightly into a disc with your hands.

Step 8

Place a spoonful of the cooled beef mixture in the center of each dough disc. Pinch the edges of the dough together to enclose the filling and form a bun shape.

Step 9

Place the buns seam-side down on a baking tray lined with parchment paper. Cover with a clean kitchen towel and let rest for 10 minutes.

Step 10

Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Brush the tops of the buns with a little milk or an egg wash for a golden finish.

Step 11

Bake the buns in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until they are golden brown and fully cooked.

Step 12

Allow the buns to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy your Quick Beef Buns warm!
