Preparation:25min  ›  Cook:35min  ›  Extra time:2hours rising  ›  Ready in:3hours 

1. Mix together flour, yeast and sugar. Melt the butter and stir in the warm milk. Beat in the egg. Mix together dry and wet ingredients. Dough should be knead-able and not too sticky. Add more flour if needed. Knead for about 10 minutes.
2. Place dough in an oiled bowl, roll until covered in oil, cover with a tea towel and set in a warm place to rise until doubled in size, about 60-90 minutes. Knock down then cut into 15 even pieces. Form into smooth balls.
3. Grease a large round or oblong cake tin then set in the buns, so they are just barely touching. Cover with a tea towel then set in a warm place to rise until doubled, about 30 minutes.
4. Pre heat oven to 180 degrees C. Pour over the tin of coconut milk until just covering the tops of the buns. Bake in preheated oven for 35-40 minutes.

Pani Popo
