Add just enough extra to obtain a rough dough. Knead until smooth. Place in a greased bowl, cover and leave in a warm place until doubled in size, about 1 1/2 hours.

2. Grease two 12-cup bun trays. Punch down the dough, and make 72 equal-size balls.

3. Place three balls, in one layer, in each bun cup. Cover loosely and leave to rise in a warm place until doubled in size, about 1 1/2 hours.

4. Preheat the oven to 200C/400F/Gas 6. Brush the rolls with glaze. Bake until lightly browned, about 20 minutes. Cool slightly on a wire rack before serving.
