Make the bread dough in a bread machine, until the 1st rising is complete.

Seefor directions.

After the 1st rising is complete, take the dough out and deflate it gently.

In the meantime, cut up the ham or bacon and peel the eggs.
-
9
When the dough has rested, roll out each piece into a square with the seam side down.
-
10
Fold in half into a triangle shape, and cut into the dough, leaving it connected at the top.
-
11
The dough tends to stick when folding it, so dust the surface lightly with flour.
-
12
Open up the dough square again, and fold the opposing cut sides to the other side.
-
13
This creates a well in the middle.
-
14
Sorry about the drawing!

15
Squeeze some mayonnaise into the well created in the middle.
-
16
Put the ham pieces in, avoiding the part where you'll place the egg, then push in the egg.

The photo shows the rolls after they have risen.
-

Let the dough rise at 35C for 40 to 45 minutes, using your oven's bread-rising setting.

The dough should increase to about 1.5 to 2 times its original volume.

Squeeze on lots of mayonnaise, and sprinkle with dried parsley.
-
22
Preheat the oven to 200C, then lower it to 190C.

Roll up the dough tightly from the side nearest you.
