Add remaining flour and mix well.Knead to form a soft dough for about 10 minutes.( you can use a stand mixer ,if desired) Cover the dough using a kitchen towel.Let the dough rise in a warm place until doubled in volume ,for about 20 minutes. Punch down the dough and turn it on to a lightly floured surface.Using a serrated knife cut the dough into two equal parts.Divide each half into 12 equal portions( i halved the recipe and divided the entire dough into 12 equal portions).With lightly floured hands,roll each portion into balls and place it on a greased baking tray ( 9 x 13). Cover using a kitchen towel and let them rise in a warm place until doubled,for about 20 minutes. Preheat oven to 180 Deg C.Lightly brush the rolls with melted butter.Bake for about 13 to 15 minutes or until it turns golden.Immediately after removing the rolls from the oven ,brush them with remaining butter.Notes:
- I halved the recipe,and used 1.5 tbsp of sugar and it tasted perfect.Adjust the quantity of sugar according to your taste.
