- Drizzle a clean surface with oil, kneading the dough for 4 minutes.
- Cover with a wet cloth, set aside to double in size – app 1 hour.
- After doubling in size, knock it down, cover and leave to rise again. App 1 hour.
- Preheat oven to 200 degrees Celcius, lightly flour a baking tray, devide the dough in 4 balls and bake for 30 minutes until crisp and golden.
Beef Stew
- While your dough for the bread are rising, you can prepare your stew by heating up the olive oil in a cast iron pot, and sautéing the garlic and star anise.
- Add the white wine vinegar and brown the meat.
- Add the Knorr stock pots, mix, cover with water and cook for one hour, stirring occasionally.
- Next you can add the veggies, ensuring there is enough liquid , simmer for another 40 minutes until veggies are soft.
- To thicken the sauce, you can crush or mash some of the cooked turnips and stir it in the sauce.
- Season with black pepper, but taste before seasoning with salt – as the stock pots are quite salty.
Curry Creme
- On low heat, melt the butter, add the curry paste and allow to simmer.
- Remove from heat and add the milk, whisking to avoid curdling.
To Serve
- Open the tops of the bread buns, by gently removing the top layer of bread, you can remove a bit of bread inside to form a cup.
- Add the beef stew, garnish with chopped coriander and serve with curry crème on the side.
