Directions

1

{"0":"In a large bowl, dissolve yeast in warm water. Let stand 10 minutes.","2":"Stir in egg, sugar, milk, salt and flour to form soft dough. Knead on a floured surface or with the dough hook on a Kitchenaid Mixer (my preference) until smooth, approximately 6 to 8 minutes.","4":"Place dough in an oiled bowl and cover with a cloth. Set aside to rise until doubled in volume, approximately 1 hour.","6":"Punch dough down. Knead in garlic.","8":"Pinch off small balls about the size of ping-pong balls. Roll into ball-shapes and place on a tray. Cover with a towel and let double in size, approximately 30 minutes.","10":"Heat grill (approximately 375 degrees; I cooked these on our woodstove). Roll balls of dough into a thin circle and place on lightly oiled grill. Cook for approximately 2 minutes and turn over.","12":"Brush cooked side with butter and keep grilling until both sides are brown."}
