Cheese Croissants!!

Salaaaamu alaikum

Made those a couple of days ago...thought I'd share the recipe..hehe alongside the pictures.

Ingredients:
-3 cups of flour
-1/2 cup of milk
-1/2 cup of water to mix with a tablespoon of instant yeast
-4 tablespoons oil or butter if prefered
-pinch of salt
-1 tablespoon baking powder

Filling:
- cream cheese
Now mix all the ingredients together, and remember to stir the yeast well into the water prior to blending it into the mixture. Stir until making a slightly sticky dough. Make it into one big lump.


Cover the dough and let it rest for about 30 minutes.

Later on: Now knead the dough and form a small ball,
(sorry about the messiness; I was in a miserable hurry >< ) Make sure you have some flour underneath, otherwise it'll stick to whatever board you're using. Same goes for the rolling pin. Use the rolling pin to spread them into rectangles, then further cut them into triangles like shown.

Then fill in with cheese/spinach/meat/etc whatever you like. I personally like cheese . Finally, smear with egg yolk and spread some sesame on top, and bake into oven for no more than 10 minutes.

et voila!haha..I burned some of them *blush* But they taste good ;)
