Critical Success Points

  • Achieve the right dough consistency (slightly sticky but manageable).
  • Complete first rise (40 min) to develop volume.
  • Properly seal the filling by folding the edges before cooking.
  • Cook on very high heat but briefly to keep the bread moist.

Safety Warnings

  • The pan becomes very hot; use oven mitts.
  • Oil can splatter; keep your face away.
  • Handle the dough with wet hands to avoid sticky dough burns.
