Tips

Use warm water, not hot. Water around 37°C – 40°C (98°F – 104°F) helps activate the yeast without killing it.

Knead the dough well—at least 10 minutes—for a light and airy texture.

Don’t skip the second rise. This helps create fluffier rolls with a better structure.

Pat the shrimp dry before cooking to prevent excess moisture and ensure a nice sear. Shrimp cook in just 2-3 minutes—overcooking will make them tough.

A fresh yogurt-garlic sauce or a spicy harissa-mayo pairs perfectly with these rolls.
