  6. After 2 hours, punch down the air from the dough, take it on a clean kitchen counter & knead it for 5 min, then shape it into small balls & place it in a round cake tin (grease the pan with oil nicely before placing the dough balls)

  7. Place the smooth side up in the cake tin, brush some milk over the dough balls, sprinkle little coriander & chilli flakes on them, cover it & let it proof again for another hour, or till they become puffy & cover all the space in the cake tin.
