Eggless buns

I have been making these Tuna Buns for quite some time now and they are amazing. One weekend having no eggs on hand I had to look for recipe which would make buns without eggs and this recipe is great. And it makes such soft buns. So, if you have/eat eggs make the recipe with eggs otherwise go for eggless. They both are great

Ingredients:

1 package dry yeast
1/2 cup warm water
1/2 cup each of milk,
1/4 cup oil and sugar
3 cups all purpose flour
1/2 cup wheat flour

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 yeast mixture and the remaining flour and the wheat 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 2 hours or until the dough more than doubles.

Once it doubles punch the dough down and knead for 2-3 minutes. 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 350 degrees. Bake the buns for 20-25 minutes. After 20 minutes brush the buns with oil and sprinkle with dried oregano and bake for 2-3 more minutes until golden brown. Let it cool for atleast 5 minutes before serving
