Step-by-step
- Place the flour, yeast and salt into a mixing bowl and mix together. Add the water and mix together into a ball shape.
- Tip the contents of the bowl out and knead into a smooth elastic dough – this should take about 10 minutes. You could use a free-standing electric mixer with a dough hook attachment, which would take about 6 minutes on medium speed.
- Place the dough into a well-oiled bowl, cover with a damp cloth, and allow to rise until it has doubled in size. Whilst the dough proves, prepare the filling: mix the garlic, salt, pepper and chilli flakes with the tomato purée.
- Preheat the oven to 220C/200C fan/gas mark 7.
- When the dough has risen, sprinkle plenty of polenta on to the worktop and roll the dough out into a square of about 30 x 30cm. Spread the filling paste onto the dough, then sprinkle over the onion slices, torn basil, grated cheddar cheese and Prosciutto.
- Roll the dough up into a tight spiral, trim the rough ends, then slice into 12 even buns. Fit the buns into the bun tin, spirals facing up – they will be a snug fit. Allow to rest at room temperature for 30 minutes, then bake for 15 minutes
- Remove the buns from the oven and allow to cool and crisp in the tin, then drizzle over extra oil and pepper.
