Prepare the Yeast Mixture In a mixing bowl, combine the lukewarm milk, yeast, and sugar. Let it sit for 5 minutes until frothy.

Mix the Wet Ingredients Add the mayonnaise, ketchup, and salt to the yeast mixture. Stir well to combine.

Knead the Dough Gradually add the bread flour to the wet ingredients, stirring until the dough comes together.

Shape the Dough Transfer the dough to a floured surface and knead for about 5-7 minutes until smooth and elastic.

Let the Dough Rise Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover it with a damp cloth, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour or until doubled in size.

Preheat the Oven Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).

Roll Out the Dough Punch down the dough and roll it out into a rectangle shape on a floured surface.

Add the Filling Spread the sliced cucumber, tomatoes, grated carrots, grated cheese, and sliced boiled sausages evenly over the dough.

Roll the Dough Starting from one end, tightly roll up the dough into a log shape, sealing the edges.

Assemble the Loaf Place the filled dough into a greased loaf pan and brush the top with melted butter.

Add the Topping Sprinkle bread crumbs over the top of the loaf.

Bake the Loaf Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes or until the loaf is golden brown and sounds hollow when tapped on the bottom.
