Here's a recipe for Chilean Pan Amasado:

Ingredients:

  • 4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons salt
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 2 teaspoons active dry yeast
  • 1 1/4 cups warm water
  • 1/4 cup vegetable oil
  • Additional flour for dusting

Instructions:

Activate the Yeast: In a small bowl, combine the warm water, sugar, and yeast. Stir gently and let it sit for about 5-10 minutes until the mixture becomes frothy.

Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, sift together the flour and salt.

Combine Wet Ingredients: Make a well in the center of the flour mixture. Pour the activated yeast mixture and vegetable oil into the well.

Knead the Dough: Using a wooden spoon or your hands, mix the wet and dry ingredients until a shaggy dough forms. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for about 8-10 minutes until the dough becomes smooth and elastic. Add more flour as needed to prevent sticking, but be careful not to add too much to keep the dough soft.

Let the Dough Rise: Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, cover it with a clean kitchen towel or plastic wrap, and let it rise in a warm, draft-free place for about 1 to 1 1/2 hours, or until doubled in size.

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it.

Shape the Rolls: Punch down the risen dough to deflate it. Divide the dough into 8 equal portions. Roll each portion into a ball and place them on the prepared baking sheet, leaving some space between each roll.

Second Rise: Cover the rolls with a clean kitchen towel and let them rise for another 30-45 minutes, or until they have puffed up slightly.

Bake the Rolls: Once the rolls have risen, bake them in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until they are golden brown on top and sound hollow when tapped on the bottom.

Cool and Serve: Remove the rolls from the oven and transfer them to a wire rack to cool slightly. Serve warm with pebre or avocado spread for a delicious Chilean treat.
