Instructions

1. Prepare the filling
   • Heat oil in a pan. Sauté garlic and onion until fragrant.
   • Add ground meat and cook until browned.
   • Add diced potato, season with salt, pepper, and optional spices. Cook until potatoes are tender.
   • Let filling cool completely.
2. Make the dough
   • In a small bowl, dissolve yeast in warm milk with 1 tsp sugar. Let sit 5–10 minutes until foamy.
   • In a large bowl, combine flour, mashed potato, sugar, salt, melted butter, and egg.
   • Add yeast mixture and knead until smooth and elastic (about 8–10 minutes).
3. First rise
   • Place dough in a greased bowl, cover, and let rise 1–1.5 hours or until doubled in size.
4. Assemble the rolls
   • Punch down dough and divide into 6–8 portions.
   • Flatten each portion into a small rectangle. Spoon filling in the center and fold/roll to seal.
5. Second rise
   • Place rolls seam-side down on a greased baking tray. Cover and let rise 30–40 minutes.
6. Bake
   • Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
   • Brush tops with beaten egg if desired.
   • Bake 15–20 minutes until golden brown.
7. Serve
   • Cool slightly before serving. These rolls are great warm or at room temperature.

💡 Tips

• You can add cheese inside the filling for extra richness.
• Mashed sweet potatoes can substitute regular potatoes for a slightly sweeter roll.
• These rolls can be frozen after baking and reheated for a quick snack.

If you want, I can also give a faster skillet version where you cook small meat-and-potato rolls entirely on the stove without baking.

Do you want me to give that version?
