Knead the dough

The essential taste of South Africa's braai culture, roosterkoek is made by shaping a quick, yeast-free dough into small rounds and grilling them directly on the grate over the coals. With a lightly smoky crust and a soft centre, it is a staple at gatherings.
Mix the flour with the baking powder and salt, add the milk and oil, and knead until you have a soft dough.
Cover the dough and let it rest for 5 minutes.
Divide the dough into equal pieces and roll each in your palms into small flattened balls.
Place the rolls directly on a medium-heat braai grate and grill for 12 minutes, turning them, until every side is golden and the inside is cooked through.
Do not flatten the dough too thin, or the outside can char before the centre cooks through. If the coals are too hot the bread browns quickly but the inside can stay raw; medium heat works best. Allergens: contains wheat (gluten) and milk and dairy.
If you do not have a braai, you can cook the same dough in a cast-iron pan over medium heat; the result will not be as smoky but is still delicious.
Admin DadaGastro · verified in test kitchenMangalım yok, aynı hamuru evde fırında ya da tavada pişirebilir miyim, yoksa braai'nin o hafif dumanlı tadını başka hiçbir yöntemle yakalamak mümkün değil mi? Misafirlerim için deneyeceğim ama sonucun ne kadar farklı olacağını merak ediyorum.
Evet, fırında ya da döküm tavada pişirebilirsiniz, editör notunda da bu alternatifi belirttim; sonuç braai kadar dumanlı olmasa da hamurun kıvamı ve lezzeti aynı kalır, misafirleriniz farkı çok fark etmez.
Tarifte hamuru 5 dakika dinlendirmek yazıyor, ben tam o kadar bekledim ve hamur şekil vermeye mükemmel kıvamdaydı; közler orta sıcaklıktaydı ve ekmekler 12 dakikada içi güzelce piştiği halde dışı yanmadı.
