Milk Bread?!


Question:

Milk Bread?

My boyfriend grew up in India. He loved eating milk bread. Made by a company called Nilgiris. I was wondering if anyone had a recipe similar to this one?? I would love to make it for him. :)


Answers:
2 teaspoons active dry yeast
1 teaspoon sugar
300 ml tepid milk
500 g bread flour
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1 large egg
1 tablespoon milk


-Sprinkle yeast and sugar into 100ml of milk in a bowl.
-Let sit 5 mins; stir to dissolve.
-Stir in another 100ml of milk.
-Mix 400g of flour with the salt.
-Make a well in centre and pour in the yeasted milk.
-Mix with wooden spoon.
-Stir in the remaining 100ml of milk to form a sticky dough.
-If dough is too sticky, mix in the remaining flour (1 tablespoon at a time) until a knead-able dough forms.
-Turn dough out on a lightly floured surface.
-Knead until smooth and elastic (it will feel like a baby's bottom); about 10 minutes.
-Use the remaining (or more) flour if necessary.
-Put the dough in a lightly greased bowl.
-Turn to coat dough with oil.
-Cover with plastic wrap/tea towel.
-Leave to rise for 45 minutes.
-Knock back, cover and let rise again until doubled, about 45 minutes.
-Grease a 1 lb loaf pan.
-Shape the dough to fit in the pan.
-Cover, then prove until dough is 1-inch above the top of the pan (about 1 hour).
-Make egg glaze by lightly beating the egg with 1 tablespoon of milk.
-Brush the top of the loaf with the glaze.
-Bake in a preheated oven at 400°F/200°C for 45 minutes until golden and hollow-sounding when tapped underneath.
-Turn out onto a wire rack and leave to cool.
