Ingredients:
- For the dough:
- 2 cups self-raising flour
- 1 cup plain yoghurt
- ½ tsp salt, to season (optional)
- For the filling:
- 1 tbsp oil
- ½ onion, diced
- 1 cup button mushrooms, sliced
- 1 (150g) chicken breast, diced
- 1 garlic clove, crushed
- ½ tin (145g) NESTLÉ Dessert & Cooking Cream
- 2 tbsp parsley, finely chopped
- ½ tsp each salt and pepper, to season

How To Make
- For the dough:
- Preheat the oven to 180°C and grease a large baking dish with non-stick cooking spray.
- Sieve the flour and fold in the yogurt and salt until a dough is formed.
- On a floured surface, knead the dough by hand for 5-8 minutes. If too sticky, add more flour, a little at a time, while kneading. Cover and set aside until needed.
- For the filling:
Heat the oil in a pot over medium heat. - Add the onions and mushrooms and sauté for 2 minutes until tender.
- Add the chicken and sauté for 5 minutes until browned.
- Stir in the garlic and the NESTLÉ Dessert & Cooking Cream and bring the mixture up to a gentle simmer. Cook for 5-7 minutes or until the sauce has reduced and thickened.
- Turn the heat down and stir in the chopped parsley and season with salt and pepper. Take off the heat and allow the filling to cool for 10 minutes.
- To assemble:
Divide the dough into 12 portions and roll into balls. Flatten each ball into a palm-sized circle. - Add 1 tablespoon of the cooled filling into the centre of each circle.
- Fold the edges in towards the centre, over the filling, and press together to form a ball.
- Place the ball, seam-side down, into the baking dish and continue with the rest of the dough balls.
- Brush the tops of the balls with beaten egg.
- Place the baking dish in the oven for 25-30 minutes or until golden brown and puffed up.
- Remove from the oven and allow to cool for about 2 minutes. Transfer the rolls to a serving platter, serve with a green salad on the side and ENJOY!
