Steps:
- In a large bowl, place flour, salt and mix until well combined.
- In a small bowl or jug, mix lukewarm water with yeast and sugar. Let it rest for a couple of minutes until foamy.
- Then pour the liquid into the dry ingredients, add the beating egg and olive oil, and stir with a fork until roughly combined.
- Trasfer the dough onto a work surface, and knead for a couple of minutes until smooth. You might need an extra Tbsp of water, trust your judgment here, but overall the dough should be easily pliable.
- Once you shape the dougn into a ball, place it back into its bowl, cover with a damp cloth (to prevent its surface from drying out) and let it rest in a warm place until it doubles in size (about 1 hour).
- Once the dough is ready, place it onto a large sheet of parchment paper.
- Stretch it out with your fingers into a rectangular shape (about 10 x 12 inches).
- Spread the pesto on half of the rectangle, then lift the other side of the parchment paper and fold the other half of the dough over the one covered with pesto. Gently flatten the rectangle with your fingers.
- Cut the rough edges, than with a pizza cutter cut the rectangle lengthwise into 4 large stripes. At this point, you can cut the 4 stripes crosswise in order to get 8 stripes in total. This will give you 8 smaller rolls rather than 4.
- If you keep the stripes long, wrap the dough around your fingers into a loose knot leaving space in the center. Wrap the left end of the dough up and over the loop. Wrap the right end down and under the loop. Try to squeeze into a nice rounded shape. If you cut the stripes shorter, you can easily shape them into spirals.
- Place each roll on to a bakin pan lined with parchment paper, brush them lightly with some egg wash (to keep them moist), and let them rest for about 30 minutes.
- Preheat the oven to 420°F/220°C.
- Before putting the rolls in the hot oven, brush them again with egg wash and sprinkle with seeds, and salt flakes if you wish.
- Bake them for about 15-20 minutes until golden.

- In a large mixing bowl or stand mixer, combine warm water, yeast, and sugar and allow to sit for the yeast to activate, about 5 minutes.
- Add in olive oil, flour, and salt and mix with a spoon or on medium speed until the dough starts to form a ball.
- Turn dough out onto a floured surface and knead until a smooth ball is formed. If using a stand mixer, continue to mix on medium speed until the dough is smooth and elastic. The dough should spring back when you press your finger into it.
- Drizzle about one tablespoon of olive oil into a clean bowl and add your dough. Roll the dough around in the bowl so it's covered completely by the olive oil. Cover with a clean towel or plastic wrap and let sit in a warm spot until doubled in size, approximately 1 hour.
