- 357 g Flour (or 2 3/4 cup)
- 210 ml Warm water (or 1 cup-2 tbsp)
- 1 tsp Instant yeast (Active dry yeast 1 and 1/4 tsp)
- 1 tsp Salt
- 42.6 g Butter (3 tbsp)
- 1 tbsp Sugar or honey (or more according to your preference)
- 30 g Rice flour (3 tbsp)
- 38 ml Water (or 2 and 1/2 tbsp)
- A pinch of Salt
- 6.5 g Sugar (or 1/2 tbsp)
- 1.5 g Yeast (or 1/4 tsp)
- 7.5 ml Oil (or 1/2 tbsp)
- In a large bowl, combine 357 g flour, 1 tsp salt, and 1 tbsp sugar. This ensures even distribution of the dry ingredients. (about 5 minutes)
- In a separate container, mix 210 ml warm water and 1 tsp instant yeast. Let it sit for 5 minutes until it foams. This shows that the yeast is active.
- Add the yeast-water mixture to the flour mixture and add 42.6 g melted butter. Mix with a wooden spoon or by hand until a rough dough forms. (about 10 minutes)
- Place the dough on a lightly floured surface and knead for 10 minutes until smooth and elastic. If the dough is too sticky, add a little more flour.
- Put the dough in an oiled bowl and cover with a damp cloth. Let it rise in a warm place for 1 hour until it has doubled in size.
- After rising, place the dough on a lightly floured surface and divide it into two equal portions. (about 5 minutes)
- Shape each dough portion into a round shape and place on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Let it rise covered for another 30 minutes.
- Meanwhile, prepare the tiger crust: mix 30 g rice flour, 38 ml water, a pinch of salt, 1.5 g yeast, and 6.5 g sugar in a small bowl. The mixture should form a thick paste. (about 10 minutes)
- Spread the tiger paste evenly over the surface of the rolls and preheat the oven to 220°C.
- Bake the tiger rolls in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes until golden brown and the crust looks crispy. (Be careful not to bake them too long to avoid drying out.)
- Remove the rolls from the oven and let them cool on a wire rack. (about 10 minutes)

Keywords: Avoid letting the yeast sit in water for too long, as it can lose its effectiveness. Investing in a good kitchen scale will help measure ingredients accurately. If you want a crispier crust, place a bowl of water in the oven while baking.
