  1. Prepare the onion mixture:

    1. Cover 1 lb (500 g) dried onions with water and soak until soft. Drain.
    2. Mix with 2 oz (60 g) oil and ½ oz (15 g) salt.
    3. Place on a flat pan. Keep covered until ready to use.

  2. Divide and round the dough for rolls. Let rest 10 minutes.

  3. Place the rolls face down on top of the onions and flatten well with the hands. Place the flattened rolls onion-side up on paper-lined pans.

  4. Proof. Press the center of each roll with two fingers to make an indentation. Bake with steam.
