Kindli

From sbs.com.au

This traditional cake comes from northwest Hungary. This is another family favourite saved for special occasions. This makes four rolls: two with a poppyseed filling and two with a nut filling.

To make the dough, dissolve the yeast and a pinch of the sugar in the warm water and set aside to bubble for 5 minutes. Work the margarine into the flour with your fingers until it resembles coarse breadcrumbs. Add the yeast mixture, egg yolk, orange juice, the remaining sugar and a pinch of salt, mixing by hand to form a dough. Knead the dough, bringing it in from the edges with your fingers, and pushing it down into the centre of the bowl with your knuckles. The dough should be firm but elastic. If it is too stiff, add a little more orange juice. Continue to knead for 5–6 minutes, then cover and set aside to rest in a warm place for 30 minutes.
