Whisk sugar into milk and heat mixture in the microwave to lukewarm (this should take less than a minute on high)

Add yeast into a large bowl and pour the milk and sugar mixture over it. Set aside

Melt butter and mix it into the yeast mixture until all the yeast dissolves. Work quickly so that the mixture does not go cold

Whisk in the salt and egg just until incorporated then add in flour gradually. Mix until dough comes together and can’t be held without sticking to hands i.e., add more flour as needed but being careful not to add too much. You just want the dough to be pliable but still soft

Turn dough over a floured surface and knead until smooth. When you lightly press onto the dough with your fingertip, it should immediately start to spring back

Brush oil on the side of a bowl and transfer kneaded dough to this bowl. Cover and let rise for an hour. Bread dough should have doubled in size

Preheat oven to 180C

Punch air out of the dough and divide into sizable rounds. Place rounds onto a greased pan, leaving spaces in between them. Lightly spray water over the balls and sprinkle sesame seeds for garnish. Cover and allow to rest for 30minutes

Enjoy!
