Ingredients
Instructions
For this recipe you need approximately 1 hour of resting time.
Dilute the yeast and sugar in warm water (4 to 6 times the amount of oil).
In another bowl, place the flour with a little salt, butter at room temperature and the oil. Mix with your hands.
Add the water with the yeast and mix until you have a smooth dough that does not stick to your fingers. Add a little more water or flour if required.
Place the dough in a bowl, cover with a clean cloth and let it stand in a warm environment until doubled in size.
Cut the tomato and cheese into small pieces and chop the basil leaves.
Once the resting time is over, shape the bun and make a hole in the center. Fill with tomato, cheese and basil.
Leave to rise for 30 minutes.
Bake in a preheated oven at 428 °F (220 °C) for 20 minutes or until golden brown on the outside and cooked on the inside.
