  1. Make the water roux. For this mix flour and water in a pan and heat on low. Keep stirring till it becomes thick like a custard. Keep aside to cool. But stir in between so it won't form a layer on the top.
  2. After the water roux has cooled down, keep yeast for proofing. For this take quarter cup water in a bowl, add a pinch of sugar, mix and sprinkle the yeast on top. Leave aside for 5 minutes.
  3. Now for the dough, sieve flour, sugar, salt and milk powder in a bowl. Make a well add yeast, water roux and mix lightly.
  4. Then add milk little by little and make a dough. It should be sticky and soft.
  5. Leave it for 5 minutes, then knead for about 15 minutes, adding the butter as you knead. It should become non sticky and elastic. Put in a greased bowl, cover with cling wrap and keep in a warm place for 45 minutes to 1 hour.

  7. After 1 hour.

  9. Next, roll each portion into a rectangular form and then make a roll from the narrow end, like a swiss roll. Press, give one right turn and turn over. Roll again and repeat same process.
  10. Keep into a baking pan and keep for proofing for 45-50 minutes.
  11. Preheat oven at the end of the proofing time to 180 centigrade.
  12. Brush milk on the bread and bake for 30-35 minutes.
