Seal the edges properly and by cupping it inside the palm and rolling it in circles until you get a smooth finish. Place the balls on a greased tray with enough place for rising.

When the balls are ready, brush the top with milk and sprinkle sesame seeds.
Place the tray in the centre rack and bake for 25 minutes or until the top is golden.
Rotate the tray in between to avoid burning of the corner buns and even browning. Remove the tray from oven and brush the buns with melted butter. Remove and cool on a wire rack.
