Ingredients

Instructions

  1. 1

    Dissolve the yeast and sugar in the lukewarm milk and leave for 5 minutes. Separate the egg and set the yolk aside for the top.

  2. 2

    Mix 500 g of the flour with the salt; add the yeasted milk, yogurt, egg white and 100 g melted butter and knead for 8-10 minutes into a soft dough. Cover and let rise for 1 hour (not included in the total time).

  3. 3

    For the filling, melt 80 g of the butter in a skillet, add the remaining 100 g flour and toast over low heat, stirring constantly, for 10-12 minutes until light brown; let cool.

  4. 4

    Preheat the oven to 180 °C. Melt the remaining 50 g butter. Divide the dough into 10 balls and roll each into a 20 cm round.

  5. 5

    Brush each round with melted butter and sprinkle with a tablespoon of the toasted filling; roll up tightly, coil the rope into a snail and press it down by hand to about 12 cm across.

  6. 6

    Place the kete on a parchment-lined baking sheet and brush with the egg yolk.

  7. 7

    Bake at 180 °C for 25-30 minutes until golden; serve warm.
