🥄 180 g yogurt (5 tablespoons)
🌻 160 ml vegetable oil (just a finger below 1 cup)
🍶 15 g baking powder (1.5 packets)
🧂 18 g salt (1.5 teaspoons)

🧀 100 g finely grated cheese (mozzarella or similar)
🧈 2 tablespoons butter

Instructions

1- Prepare the Dough:

• In a large mixing bowl, combine all the ingredients except the flour.
• Stir the mixture until everything is well integrated.
• Slowly incorporate the flour while continuously kneading until you obtain a soft and slightly sticky dough. The consistency may vary depending on the type of flour used.

2- Shape the Buns:

• Divide the dough into 16 equal portions, rolling each piece into a smooth ball.
• Flatten each ball by hand into a disk, ready to be filled and shaped.

3- Fill and Form the Buns:

• To each disk, add a spoonful of the mashed potato filling, which you prepare by mixing the boiled potatoes, grated cheese, butter, and seasonings.
• Fold the edges over the filling, pinching them together to ensure they're well-sealed.

4- Prepare for Baking:

• Arrange the buns seam-side down on a baking tray lined with parchment paper.
• Brush the tops with the reserved egg white and sprinkle with sesame seeds for an additional crunch.

5- Bake:

• Bake the buns in a preheated oven at 180°C (fan-assisted) for 25-30 minutes, or until they achieve a beautiful golden brown color.

6- Serve and Enjoy:

• Let them cool slightly before serving.
• Enjoy these buns on their own or as a perfect companion to any meal.
