This recipe is not only simple and quick but will surely impress anyone who tastes it. It is perfect for a snack, an appetizer, or even as a main course. Preparation time: 30 minutes Rising time: 1 hour Baking time: 30 minutes Total time: 1 hour and 30 minutes Number of servings: 8 Ingredients - 400 g flour (+ extra for working) - 1 teaspoon salt - 100 ml warm milk - 20 g fresh yeast - 1 teaspoon sugar - 2 tablespoons flour (for the leaven) - 50 ml oil - 1 large egg - Milk, as needed (approximately 50-100 ml, depending on necessity) - 175 g telemea cheese - 2 tablespoons cottage cheese (crumbled) - 1 yolk - 150 g cheese (grated) Step by Step 1. Preparing the Leaven Start by gently warming 100 ml of milk. It should not be hot, just warm enough to activate the yeast. Add 1 teaspoon of sugar and the 20 g of crumbled yeast. Mix well, then add the 2 tablespoons of flour. Everything should be homogeneous. Let the leaven rise in a warm place for about 20-30 minutes, until it becomes frothy and doubles in volume. 2. Preparing the Dough In a large bowl, sift the 400 g of flour and add the salt. Make a well in the center of the flour, where you will pour in the risen leaven, the beaten egg, and the oil. Use a spoon to mix the ingredients, gradually incorporating the flour. Meanwhile, add warm milk little by little until you obtain a soft, elastic dough that is not sticky. It is important not to add too much milk at once but to adjust the consistency of the dough gradually. 3. Rising the Dough After kneading the dough, cover it with a clean towel and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour, until it doubles in volume. This is the ideal time to prepare the filling. 4. Preparing the Filling In a separate bowl, mix the telemea cheese with the 2 tablespoons of crumbled cottage cheese and the yolk. Use a fork to thoroughly homogenize the mixture. If the telemea cheese is very salty, do not add extra salt. This filling will provide a savory taste to your roll. 5. Assembling the Roll After the dough has risen, turn it out onto a floured work surface. Roll it out into a rectangular sheet about 0.5 cm thick. Spread the telemea filling over the sheet, being careful to leave a small margin all around. Grate 100 g of cheese and sprinkle it evenly over the filling. Now, carefully roll the dough as tightly as possible, starting from one side. Make sure the roll is well sealed at the ends to prevent the filling from leaking during baking. Place the roll in a baking tray lined with parchment paper. 6. Baking Sprinkle the remaining grated cheese on top of the roll. Preheat the oven to 180 degrees Celsius and place the tray inside. Bake the roll for 25-30 minutes or until it becomes golden and nicely browned. Once baked, let it cool slightly in the tray, then transfer it to a rack to cool completely. Serving The roll with telemea and cheese can be served warm or at room temperature. It can be sliced and served alongside a fresh green salad or with a portion of Greek yogurt for added freshness. It is delicious and pairs excellently with a glass of white wine or a refreshing lemonade. Practical Tips - Attention to Yeast: Make sure the yeast is fresh; otherwise, the dough will not rise properly. - Temperature of Ingredients: Use room temperature ingredients to facilitate the homogenization process. - Vegan Option: You can replace the egg in the dough with a mixture of water and flour (1 tablespoon of flour mixed with 2 tablespoons of water) and use vegan cheese for the filling. Nutritional Benefits This roll is a good source of protein due to the cheeses and egg. Whole grain flour can be used for a higher fiber content, and olive oil can add healthy fatty acids. Frequently Asked Questions - Can it be frozen? Yes, the roll can be frozen after baking. Wrap the slices well in plastic wrap and keep them in the freezer for up to 2 months. - What other fillings can I use? You can experiment with other cheeses or add spinach, mushrooms, or even minced meat. - How do I know if the dough is ready? The dough is ready when it becomes elastic and no longer sticks to your fingers. This roll with telemea and cheese is a perfect example of a recipe that combines tradition with flavor. Whether you prepare it for a special occasion or simply to indulge yourself, it will surely delight you! Enjoy your meal!
