Bondipan

Meat and vegetable sandwich

To make Bondipan, start by mixing together flour, sugar, and yeast in a large bowl. In a separate bowl, whisk together coconut milk, eggs, and melted butter. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix until a dough forms. Knead the dough for a few minutes, then cover and let it rise for about an hour. Once the dough has risen, shape it into small balls and place them on a baking sheet. Let the dough rise again for about 30 minutes, then bake in a preheated oven until golden brown. Serve warm or at room temperature.
