Homemade Bread with Onions
Description
The baking is simple and quick. I recently discovered this recipe, and I liked it just from the description. The ingredients are affordable, and the bread is easy to make! As a result, you get a soft and tasty little loaf. Well then, let's get started. It can be served with tea or coffee.

2. At this time, let’s prepare the onion. Clean the onion, cut it into squares (or half‑rings), fry it in a hot skillet with vegetable oil (2 Tbsp), add 1 tsp sugar and 0.5 tsp salt. The total frying time should be about 2–4 minutes. The onion should be golden‑brown. After frying, let the onion cool.

4. To the flour we add the risen yeast, cooled onion, egg, sour cream, vegetable oil (2 tbsp), sugar (if you haven’t added it earlier). Mix everything well. If the dough seems too liquid to you, you can add more flour. But it should not be too stiff, i.e., you shouldn’t over‑“stuff” it with flour.

5. Cover the dough with a clean towel and place it in a warm spot to “rise” for about 30 minutes. After this time, my dough looked like this:

6. The dough needs to be kneaded and left for another 20 minutes to rise again. Then knead the dough again and shape it into a ball. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper that has been greased with vegetable oil (about 2 tbsp). Place the future roll on the sheet. Cover with a towel and let it rest in a warm place for the “proofing” for 15–20 minutes.
