   Activate the yeast: In a small bowl, combine lukewarm milk, 1 tablespoon of sugar, and the yeast. Stir gently and let it sit for about 10 minutes until foamy.

   💡 نصائح احترافية: Ensure milk is not too hot, as it can kill the yeast.
2. 2

   Make the dough: In a large bowl, combine flour, the remaining sugar, egg yolk, melted butter, and salt. Add the activated yeast mixture. Knead the ingredients together until a soft, smooth, and slightly sticky dough forms.

   Shape the dumplings: Punch down the risen dough and divide it into 8-10 equal portions. Flatten each portion into a circle, place a spoonful of your chosen filling (jam, poppy seeds, or quark cheese) in the center, and carefully seal the edges to form a round dumpling.

   💡 نصائح احترافية: Ensure the filling is completely enclosed to prevent it from leaking out during steaming.

   Prepare for steaming: Lightly grease a steamer basket or a wide pot with a tight-fitting lid. Arrange the dumplings in the steamer, ensuring they have some space between them as they will expand.

   💡 نصائح احترافية: You can also use a large pot with a few inches of boiling water at the bottom and a heatproof plate or insert to hold the dumplings above the water.

   Steam the buchty: Place the steamer over the boiling water, cover tightly, and steam for about 15-20 minutes, or until the dumplings are puffed up and cooked through.
