Total time: 110 min
Yield: 6 servings
Ingredients: 300 g bread flour or wheat flour; 150 ml water; 1 egg; 12 g sugar; 3 g yeast; 28 g unsalted butter; 3 g salt; 70 g unsalted butter; 5 g chopped onion; 15 g minced garlic; 3 g salt

Directions

1. Step

In a mixing bowl, combine 300 g bread flour, 150 ml water, 1 egg, 12 g sugar, 3 g yeast, and 28 g unsalted butter. Mix with a spatula. Add 3 g salt and mix until a soft dough forms. Cover the bowl with a lid and let it rest for 1 hour.

2. Step

Melt 70 g unsalted butter in a pan over low heat. Add 5 g chopped onion, 15 g minced garlic, and 3 g salt. Stir well and cook on low heat briefly, then remove from heat and set aside.

3. Step

Divide the rested dough into 4 equal parts. Roll each part into a ball, cover with plastic wrap, and let rest for 15 minutes.

4. Step

Roll out one dough ball into a flat circle using a rolling pin. Spread a layer of garlic butter sauce over it. Repeat with the remaining dough balls, stacking them one on top of the other with garlic butter sauce between each layer. Use a knife or pizza cutter to cut and shape the dough into a floral design. (Refer to a tutorial or visual guide for the specific shaping technique.)

5. Step

Place the shaped dough on a baking tray, cover with plastic wrap, and let it proof for 40 minutes. Brush the top with an egg wash (beaten egg). Bake in a preheated oven at 170°C (338°F) for 20 minutes. Lower the heat slightly if needed, then remove from the oven.
