Chocolate eggs - 2 pieces

Step by Step guide

Step 1

To prepare the buns, knead the dough: place the flour in a large bowl, add the yeast, sugar, and salt, and mix everything together. Make a well in the center and add the two eggs, butter, and 100 ml of cold water. Transfer the dough to a floured work surface and knead for 5 minutes until the dough is smooth and elastic. Place the dough in a clean, oiled bowl and let it rise at room temperature for 40-50 minutes or until it doubles in size.

Step 2

Make the filling: cut the salmon into small pieces, about 2x2 cm, wash the spinach and chop it finely. Marinate the salmon in lemon juice, zest, and green onion while the dough is rising. Season with pepper, but do not add salt as the smoked salmon is already salty. Cover with a lid and refrigerate.

Step 3

Preheat the oven to 356°F. Roll out the dough to a thickness of 0.5 cm. Cut into rectangles, place the salmon and spinach in the center, and seal the edges to make it airtight. Brush the edges of the dough with egg yolk to seal them.

Step 4

Place the finished buns in a cupcake tray or on a baking sheet greased with butter. Brush the tops of the buns with egg yolk as well. Set the tray in a warm place until the buns rise slightly. Then bake them in the oven for about 50 minutes until golden brown.
