• Once you have something resembling dough, lightly oil your hands and knead the dough for 8-10 minutes. Make sure it's smooth.
• Split the dough into about 12 pieces and roll them into balls.
• Open the balls and fill them with freshly shredded mozzarella cheese. Don't be stingy, and make sure you pinch them closed very well to avoid the cheese leaking in the oven.
• Put the balls in a lightly greased pan and cover with a towel. Let sit 10 minutes.
• Preheat oven to 365 F / 185 C
• Combine egg and 1 tbsp of water to make an egg wash. Cover the balls in this mixture and put in the oven for 25-30 minutes.
• While it cooks, combine the butter, salt, garlic powder, pepper flakes, and parsely to make the garlic butter.
• While the bread rolls are still warm, brush the garlic butter generously on them.
• Enjoy :)
