"Bread Rolls" -can refer to different food items.In US bread rolls refers to "A bread roll is a piece of bread, usually small and round and is commonly considered a side dish. Bread rolls are often used in the same way as sandwiches are--cut transversely, with fillings placed between the two halves."
The Indian version of Bread rolls is entirely different.Growing up,we had bread rolls for breakfast or for evening snacks,but not as often as we wanted as it was deep fried.Now ,I know one person who really relishes bread rolls-that's my brother-in-law.Well ,here goes the recipe.
Ingredients:-
1 cup potatoes (cooked & mashed)
1/4 cup onions finely chopped
1/2 cup green peas (cooked)
6-7 strands coriander leaves-finely chopped
2 green chillies,finely chopped
2 tbl spn bread crumbs
1/2 tea spn ginger paste
5 bread slices
1 tsp Garam Masala
1/2 tsp Amchoor Powder(Dry Mango Powder)
1/2 tsp red chilli powder
Salt to taste
Oil for deep frying
Directions:-
1.Boil and mash potatoes.
2.Boil the green peas so that they turn a little soft.
3.Mix mashed potatoes,peas,finely chopped onions,ginger paste,green chilli,coriander leaves,salt,garam masala powder,red chilli powder,Amchoor Powder together.
4.Remove the bread edges and sprinkle a little water all over the slice.Remove the excessive water by squeezing the bread slices gently between both hands.Do not sprinkle a lot of water on the bread slice,it will make it soft,mushy and difficult to handle and also the rolls will absorb more oil while deep frying.
5.Place 1-1& 1/2 tblsp stuffing on the center of the bread and wrap the bread piece completely around the stuffing.If there is any crack the oil will seep in and make the rolls more soggy.
6.Roll the bread rolls in bread crumbs and deep fry in oil over medium heat till they are golden brown.
7.Serve hot with tomato sauce.
Note:-You can try the same thing using a mix of grated cheese , a little finely chopped capsicum and black pepper. Tastes too good! Though a little fattening .
'njoy!!
