Load the ingredients into the machine and set the program for fresh dough (number 10 for Kenwood). The dough will be ready in 1.5 hours.
1 cup milk, 3 tablespoon melted butter, 1 fresh eggs, 3 ½ cup flour, ⅓ cup caster sugar, 1.5 teaspoon salt, 1 package yeast
Preparing the sausages
Lay the sausage on a baking tray covered with parchment paper and make some holes in the sausages
20 sausages or chipolata
Cook the sausage in the oven at 355 F - 180 C for only 30 minutes, leaving it still slightly pink. Let it cool down completely.
Making the buns
Before you take out the dough from the bread machine basket, make sure you have sprinkled the surfaced of the board with plenty of flour. The dough will be sticky so you need to coat it with flour immediately to stop it from sticking to your hands.
Put the dough on a wooden board well coated with flour and cut the dough into 20 parts
Roll each piece the same length as the sausage
Place a sausage in the center and add a spoon of onion relish
½ cup onion relish
If you like spicy food (and not serving them to the children), you can cover the sausage with a good spicy English mustard.
1 tablespoon original English mustard
Roll the dough around the sausage
Lay all the sausages on a baking tray
Brush them with an egg wash.
1 fresh eggs
Once the rolls are ready, let them rest for 30 minutes.
Cook them in a hot oven for 30 minutes at 355 F - 180C
You can serve them whole for a picnic or children's parties or cut them in smaller sizes for a buffet

Notes
Use a bread machine to make the dough, so much easier
Buy small sausages, too large will make the buns overcooked
Make holes in the sausage before pre-baking them so the fat will drain out
To make the roll spicy cover the sausages with some mustard
Before you take out the dough from the bread machine basket, make sure you have sprinkled the surfaced of the board with plenty of flour. The dough will be sticky so you need to coat it with flour immediately to stop it from sticking to your hands.
Brush the rolls with egg wash to make it shine
If you made some rolls without mustard, sprinkle them with sesame seeds so you distinguish them once they are cooked.
Let the buns rise again before baking them
Leave them whole if you are taking them to a picnic, cut in bites if you are serving them as appetizers
