Everyone has bread in their fridge. You may give this variation to your leftover bread. Bread does not take much time to cook. Stuffing of bread roll is very simple and needs only boiled potatoes and basic spices like aloo paratha or sandwich. I usually use potato stuffing but you can try different kind of stuffing. You can add peas or vegetables to give a variation as per your choice. You can add nuts to give a healthy and rich variation. You can also add paneer or cheese with potato.  Usually made using white bread slices but, you can go ahead with brown bread or whole wheat bread too. Do not forget to dip and squeeze the bread slices in water before stuffing it. It is usually deep fried but you can bake it.

This goes very well with a hot cup of masala tea during monsoon season. You can serve this during breakfast or as an evening snack with mint chutney, coriander chutney, tomato ketchup or with your choice of accompaniment. So let’s make Bread Roll today.

Course: Snack
Cuisine: Indian
Prep Time: 5 minutes
Cook Time: 15 minutes
Servings: 2

Ingredients:

4 bread slices
3 aloo (potato), boiled
½ tsp red chilli powder
½ tsp coriander powder
A small pinch heeng
¼ tsp garam amasala
½ tsp amchur (dry mango powder)
Salt to taste
oil for deep frying

Instructions:

Peel and mash the potatoes in a bowl. Add salt, red chilli powder, coriander powder, heeng, amchur powder and garam masala. Mix very well.

Take 1 cup water in a bowl. Add ½ tsp. salt and mix well.
Cut the side crust of each slices.

Dip one bread slice in the water completely just for a second and immediately take out from water.

Squeeze off the excess water by pressing between your palms. Bread should be soft and moist otherwise it will break down.
Place some potato stuffing between center.

Bring the edges together, close them and give a shape. Also press top and bottom part to seal them.

Heat oil in a pan for frying on medium flame. When the oil becomes hot, carefully add the rolls. The oil has to be moderately hot. If the oil is not hot enough, the moist bread will absorb a lot of oil. Add only 2-4 rolls at one time.

Flip them and move around for even frying. Fry till they are crispy golden brown from all the sides.
Remove it to a paper towel for extra oil to be absorbed.
Serve hot with any accompaniment or dip.

Tips:

• You can use multigrain or brown bread instead of white bread.
• Make sure any stuffing should not expose from the roll otherwise it will soak excess oil. Seal it properly from all sides.
• Fry the rolls in hot oil else the bread will absorb oil.
• You can add paneer or nuts to make it healthier.
• You can add any vegetables of your choice.
