Strawberry bombs

°300g (2 cups) flour

°1 egg

°45g (1/4 cup) sugar

°pinch of salt

°7g dry yeast

°140 ml (3/5 cup) hot milk

°40 g (1/4 cup) softened butter

+For the decoration:

°Whipped cream

°Strawberries, chopped

°Granulated sugar

In a medium bowl, join sugar, yeast and milk and mix to break up. Whisk the egg. Add the flour and salt, and begin working the mixture with a spatula. Then keep manipulating with your hands until you get a flexible batter. Add the relaxed spread and keep manipulating until the margarine is very much integrated into the batter. Structure a ball with the batter, cover with a tea towel or saran wrap and let ascend for 60 minutes. Partition the mixture into 8 sections and roll each into a ball. Cover and let stand 30 minutes. Smooth each ball a bit and roll it into a ball once more. Cover and let rest for an additional 30 minutes. Sear the balls in hot oil over low intensity for 2-3 minutes on each side. Cool somewhat and cut down the middle the long way, similar to a burger bun. Embellish half with whipped cream and slashed strawberries, close with the other half, sprinkle with icing sugar and serve.

Enjoy!
