The trip to Hawaii was a memorable one. It was one of the most relaxing vacations we have taken in a very long time. The sunrise was awesome, but I didn't get to see the sunset. One of the things on my bucket list is, to see sunrise from the water and the sunset into the water on the same day. That didn't happen on this trip.
Anyway, on one of those days on Oahu, we went to get breakfast and there were these tuna filled buns which I had to try. I am not a big fan of fish and fish for breakfast was just weird. But I had to try it cause I wasn't sure we will be back at that place again.
I have never eaten something so good. The bun was super soft and the tuna salad inside was delicious. So I made it and they turned out great. My kids loved it...which shows the success of any recipe.

Ingredients:
- 1 package dry yeast
- 1/2 cup warm water
- 1/2 cup each of milk, oil, sugar
- 3 cups all purpose flour
- 1 egg beaten
Tuna Filling Ingredients:
- 2 can tuna drained
- 1/4 cup each of sweet relish, mayonnaise
- 1/4 teaspoon each of salt and pepper
Mix all the ingredients for the tuna filling and set aside until ready to use
Add the yeast to the warm water and 2 teaspoon sugar and set aside for 10 minutes.
Heat the milk to warm and add sugar oil and salt and mix till sugar dissolves. Add 1 cup all purpose flour and mix well with a wooden spoon. Add the beaten egg and yeast mixture and the remaining flour and mix well with your hands. Knead the dough for 5 minutes. Oil and bowl and leave the kneaded dough in it covered with a kitchen towel in a warm place for about and hour or until the dough doubles.
Once it doubles punch the dough down and divide it into 12 equal parts. Flatten them into about 5 inch discs, add a heaped teaspoon of tuna filling and reshape them into balls. (My tuna filling was enough for 8 buns) (The rest I filled it up with a teaspoon each of strawberry jam in 2 and peach jam in 2). Leave the buns aside for 20 minutes
Pre heat the oven to 325 degrees. Bake the buns for 20-25 minutes. After 20 minutes brush the buns with white egg wash and sprinkle with dried oregano and bake for 2-3 more minutes until golden brown. Let it cool for atleast 5 minutes before serving
