Trying out 'new toy'

My friend went to Food & Hotel Asia 2012 recently & got some samples from Angel company. Knowing that I love to bake bread, she passed me 2 packets of yeasts to try. I use a direct method for bread making this time. 
Ingredients:
200g bread flour
50g wholemeal flour
30g Shortening
8g milk powder
45g Sugar
1/4 tsp Salt
1 Egg 
7g dry yeast
120g water
Oats for toppings (optional)

Method:
1. Using the mixer hook, mix all ingredients (except shortening) together. Beat until a dough is formed.
2. Add in shortening & beat again until the dough is smooth. Proof for 1hr.
3. Punch out air from the dough.   
4. Divide dough into 50g each. Proof for 1hr. 
5. Bake in a preheated oven @ 190°C for 10mins.
 
 
 Verdict: Very soft & fluffy bread.
