Instructions
| 1. Mix warm milk with yeast and a teaspoon of sugar. Leave on for 10-15 minutes. | |
| 2. Combine the remaining sugar with flour and salt. Add the yeast mixture and two eggs, beat with a mixer at low speed. | |

| 4. Put the dough in a bowl greased with vegetable oil, cover with cling film and leave warm for an hour and a half. | |
| 5. Divide the dough into three parts and form each into a bundle about 40 cm long. Interlace the bundles together. | |
| 6. Transfer to a parchment-lined baking sheet and pinch the ends together to form a ring. | |
| 7. Lay a few colored eggs on the dough, lightly oiled on the side where they come into contact with the dough. | |
