Linda's Yeast Rolls

Ingredients

1/3 cup sugar
1/2 cup oil
1 tsp. salt
1/2 cup water

1 pkg. yeast
1/2 cup warm water

1 egg (beaten)

3 cups plain flour

Heat sugar, oil, salt and water on stove until warm. 

Add all ingredients to 3 cups plain flour.  Stir (do not knead).  Cover and let rise in a warm place away from any drafts.  Let rise 2 to 3 hours. Pour out dough onto flour - roll out and cut like small biscuits.  Put on cookie sheet, sides touching.  Let rise again about 2 hours. 

Bake at 425 degrees until done.

These rolls are very easy to make.  Just remember not to add yeast to water unless it is barely warm.
