Mix flour, yeast, and salt in a large bowl.

In a separate bowl, warm milk and water until lukewarm.

Add butter and sugar to the warm liquid and stir until dissolved.

Combine the wet ingredients with the dry ingredients and mix until a dough forms.

Place the dough in a greased bowl and cover with a damp cloth; let rise until doubled, about 1 hour.

Punch down the risen dough and divide it into equal pieces.

Shape each piece into a round roll and place on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

Cover the rolls with a cloth and let rise again for 30 minutes.

Preheat the oven to 200°C (400°F).

Brush the tops of the rolls with beaten egg and sprinkle with sesame or poppy seeds.

Bake the rolls for 15-20 minutes until golden brown.
