Instructions

1. In a bowl, combine the warm water and yeast and leave until frothy.
2. Sift the flour into a large bowl, then add the sugar, spices, milk and the yeast mixture.
3. Mix until a dough forms, by mixer with dough hook or by hand.
4. Knead on a floured surface for about 10 minutes until soft and smooth.
5. Put the dough in an oiled bowl, cover and rest for about 1 hour.
6. Meanwhile, roll the bocconcini in the zataar and set aside.
7. Knead the rested dough briefly to release air, then roll into a thick log about 40 cm long and 3 cm thick and cut into 14 pieces, each about 2.5 cm thick.
8. For rolls: flatten each piece, place a zataar bocconcini on it, wrap the dough around it and shape into a roll.
9. Place the rolls on a baking-paper-lined oven tray. Preheat the oven to 170°C.
10. Brush the rolls with melted butter, sprinkle with sesame seeds, cover with plastic wrap and a tea towel, and rest for 30 minutes.
11. Bake for 20 minutes until golden brown.
