Corned Beef Pandesal
Corned Beef Pandesal
Pandesal are a Filipino bread roll. This is a stuffed version filled with corned beef, onions, and garlic. While there are a lot of steps and waiting around for dough to rise with this recipe, the Pandesal are overall pretty simple to make. Once you have 1, you’ll end up eating 10. These rolls can be stuffed with many other fillings, either sweet or savory.

- Cut each doll rod into 6 pieces.
- Roll each of the pieces into dough balls.
- With the palm of your hand, flatten each of the dough balls to 1/4” thick discs.
- Take one in the palm of your hand and add a tablespoon of the filling to the center.
