Multi-Purpose Memorised Bread

Sister Deer is in Manila to be with Mother.  During one of our video chats, I had mentioned baking bread, and she said she had a recipe she uses all the time in HK.  According to her, she uses it for a variety of baked goodies.  I asked her to share it with me and started rattling off ingredients.  

Whoa!  Slow down, girl.  Please send it via email.  My brain can only take so much information.

She sent me this recipe which I decided to test as cinnamon rolls because I wanted to use up some raisins I had in the pantry.  I had plumped up the raisins and parked them in the fridge while waiting for the dough to rise.  In the end, I forgot to put in the raisins but the cinnamon rolls turned out quite well.  

Thanks for the recipe, Sister Deer.
