Ingredients

• 500 g Wheat flour type 550
• 1 pack Dry yeast

• 1 tsp Sugar
• 250 g Quark (20% fat)
• 120 ml Milk
• 3 tbsp Olive oil
• 1 bunch Chives
• 1 pc Egg
• 2 tbsp Sesame seeds
• Water as needed

Method

1. Mix the flour, dry yeast, salt and sugar in a large bowl.
2. Add the quark, milk and olive oil and knead with the dough hooks or your hands into a smooth dough. If it is too dry, add water one tablespoon at a time.
3. Cover the dough and let it rise in a warm place for about 60 minutes, until it has noticeably increased in size.
4. Finely chop the chives and knead them into the dough.
5. Divide the dough into 8 equal pieces, shape them into round rolls and place them on a baking sheet lined with baking paper, leaving some space between them.
6. Cover the rolls and let them rise for another 20 minutes.
7. Preheat the oven to 220 °C, top and bottom heat.
8. Beat the egg and brush the rolls with it. Sprinkle generously with sesame seeds.
9. Bake the rolls for about 18 to 20 minutes until golden brown, let them cool on a rack and serve lukewarm or fresh.
