What you need
Unbleached all purpose flour/ Maida: 504g/3 cups + 1 tablespoon
Unsalted butter: 26g/ 2 tablespoon
Salt: 10g/2 teaspoon
Instant Yeast: 7g/3/4 tablespoon
Granulated sugar: 6g/1 ½ teaspoon
Chopped red onion: 185g/1 1/3 cup
Green chilies: 1 ½ tablespoon ( I used Serrano pepper)
Cayenne pepper: ½ teaspoon
Curry leaves: 1 sprig( about 21 leaves)
Coriander leaves; 2 tablespon
Water:288g/1 cup/8oz ( used less than 2 tablespoon)
Olive oil: 1 tablespoon
How I made
In a medium skillet add olive oil and sauté the onion, green chilies and curry leaves until onion become translucent and change the color or until 4 minutes and switch off the flame and add chopped coriander leaves and set aside.
In a microwave safe bowl heat butter at high for 30 seconds and set aside.
In a bowl of kitchen aid stand mixer attached with paddle attachment add all purpose flour, yeast , sugar and salt and cayenne pepper and egg and mix everything until they become dry mass, to this add melted cooled butter and mix everything once again. To this gradually add water to form sticky but soft dough. Change the paddle attachment with dough hook and add onion and coriander mixture and mix everything for about 6 minutes to make enough gluten. Dough looks soft and shiny and it should pass window pane test.
Shape the dough loose ball and place it in a lightly oiled bowl. Cover with plastic wrap and let it rise at room temperature for about 2 hours and 27 minutes or until the dough doubled in size.
After first rise, gently deflate the dough,( about 940g) and divide it into 7 pieces of 124g and small piece of 72g( total 8 pieces). Shape each piece into a round ball; flatten to about 3" across. Place the buns on a lightly greased or parchment-lined baking sheet, cover, and let rise for about an hour and 30 minutes, until noticeably puffy.
Preheat the oven to 375 F and bake the buns for 17 minutes, until golden. Remove them from the oven, and brush with the melted butter. This will give the buns a satiny, buttery crust.
Cool the buns on a rack, enjoy as much as you wish.
