Main Ingredients
- 2 slices of soft milk bread (shokupan)
- 2 grilled frankfurter sausages
- 1 slice of cheddar cheese
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, briefly blanch the grilled frankfurter sausages in boiling water for about 30 seconds. This helps to firm up the sausages and remove excess fat, making them more flavorful and less greasy. Once blanched, remove the sausages and pat them thoroughly dry with paper towels.
Step 2
In a small bowl, crack the egg and whisk it well to create an egg wash. Now, gather your main ingredients: the milk bread slices, the blanched sausages, and the cheddar cheese. With all your components ready, you’re set to begin making these delicious rolls!
Step 3
Using a knife, carefully trim off the crusts from all sides of the bread slices. Removing the crusts ensures a softer texture when the rolls are cooked and makes them easier to roll up neatly.
Step 4
Take a rolling pin or a clean bottle and press down firmly on each slice of bread, flattening it until it’s thin and pliable. Flattening the bread allows you to add more filling and roll it tightly without the bread tearing.
Step 5
On each flattened bread slice, place a slice of cheddar cheese, followed by a grilled frankfurter sausage laid lengthwise. Leave about a 1 cm margin at one edge of the bread to help seal the roll.
Step 6
Starting from the edge with the filling, tightly roll up the bread. Once rolled, use a pastry brush to lightly coat the exposed bread edge with the egg wash. This ‘glue’ will help seal the roll securely so it doesn’t unravel during cooking. It acts like edible glue!
Step 7
Now, generously brush the entire exterior of each rolled bread sausage with the remaining egg wash. This coating will give the rolls a beautiful golden-brown color when cooked and add a delightful crispiness to the outside.
Step 8
Melt the butter in a non-stick skillet over low heat. Once the butter is melted and shimmering, carefully place the egg-washed bread rolls into the pan. Cooking over low heat is key to ensuring the inside heats through and the bread browns evenly without burning.
Step 9
Gently turn the rolls occasionally, cooking them until all sides are golden brown and crispy. Once perfectly browned, your delicious cheese sausage bread rolls are ready! Serve them warm for the best cheesy, gooey experience. Enjoy this wonderful brunch addition or satisfying snack!
