This is a very tasty recipe that I grew up eating; my mom made it on special occasions. Bread rolls make the perfect appetizer, and people of all ages love them – I know few people who didn’t enjoy them. In this recipe they are fried, but for a healthier option you can also bake or airfryer. 

Ingredients

  • 14 slices white bread

  • 10 medium size potatoes – boiled and mashed

  • ⅓ cup steamed peas

  • ½ cup chopped onions

  • 2 green chili or to taste – finely chopped

  • 2 tbsp fresh cilantro – finely chopped

  • 2 tsp salt or to taste

  • 2 tsp red chili powder or to taste

  • 2 tsp ginger/garlic paste (optional)

  • 1 tsp amchoor powder

  • 1 tsp garam masala

  • Oil for frying

Directions

  • First to make the stuffing, take a bowl and add potatoes, peas, onions, green green chilies, cilantro, red chili powder, salt, ginger garlic paste, amchoor powder and garam masala.
  •  Mix together, and add any extra spice to taste. Keep aside.
  • Take a bowl and add water and dip a slice of bread in water then squeeze excess out between your palms. 
  • Some people remove the crusts first, but I prefer to keep them.
  • Add about 2 tbsp of potato mixture to the center (more/less depending on size of slice). Make a roll in whatever shape you’d like.
  • Repeat for all bread and keep aside. 
  • Start a fry pan on medium heat. Add oil and wait until oil is hot.
  • Put a roll into the oil and fry until every side is brown. Remove and put on a paper towel to remove excess oil.
  • Fry all the rolls in the same manner. Make sure the pan is not too crowded, otherwise the rolls may break or not be crispy.
  • Serve piping hot or room temperature with green or imli chutney and tea/coffee. Enjoy!

Notes

  • These rolls keep well in the fridge in an airtight box – they’re great for traveling, parties, and picnics. You can also assemble the day before frying.
