pinch of salt

METHOD

In a medium bowl, combine sugar, yeast and milk and stir to dissolve.

Whisk in egg. Add the flour and salt, and begin mixing the dough with a spatula. Then continue to knead it with your hands until you have an elastic dough.

Add the softened butter and continue kneading until the butter is well incorporated into the dough.

Form the dough into a ball, cover with a cloth or plastic wrap and let rise for one hour

Divide the dough into 8 parts and roll each into a ball. Cover and let rest for 30 minutes.

Flatten each ball a little and roll it into a ball again. Cover and let rest for another 30 minutes.

Fry the balls in hot oil over low heat for 2-3 minutes on each side.

Let cool slightly and cut in half lengthwise, like a burger bun.

Top one half with whipped cream and chopped strawberries, close with the other half, sprinkle with powdered sugar and serve.
