Bread roll recipe – a good party snack recipe that’s quite easy to make. To make stuffed bread rolls, spiced mix vegetables are stuffed inside the bread, rolled and shallow fried, baked or tawa fried. The preparation of stuffing is just very simple and needs only mixing up the ingredients like boiled or steamed veggies, garam masala and other basic ingredients.
The stuffing is almost similar to the aloo paratha except for including peas and carrots in this. Bread rolls are usually deep fried but they are best baked or pan fried. However I have also shared the deep frying method.

How to make the recipe
Preparation for bread roll recipe
- Wash and peel the potatoes. Cut them to 2 and add to a pressure cooker or pot. Pour water just enough to cover the potatoes partially.
- Pressure cook for 1 to 2 whistles on a medium flame. Potatoes must be just cooked and not mushy. If using carrots and peas, you can just cook them in the same pot after removing potatoes.
- You can also steam the potatoes in a rice cooker until they are cooked al dente. Move the potatoes to a side, add carrots and peas to the steamer. Steam until the carrots are tender.
Prepare stuffing
- Mash potatoes or crumble them. Add carrots and peas, slightly mash them.
- Add chili powder, garam masala, turmeric, salt, coriander leaves and amchur or lemon juice
- Mix everything well and check the salt.
- Divide the mixture to 10 equal balls and make an oblong or oval shaped balls. Set these aside.
- Trim the edges of the bread.
Making bread roll recipe
- Begin to roll the bread slices with a rolling stick to flatten them like puri. Flatten to a thin sheet. This prevents the bread from absorbing oil.
- optional - Make a slightly thin mixture of the flour using water as needed. The mixture must be thin and watery or runny. Alternately use milk to bind the bread.
- Smear the milk or flour mixture all over the bread so that it turns moist and wet. But not with excess dripping water. If baking or pan frying then, use the flour mixture only on the edges to seal. Avoid making the whole bread moist.
- Place one ball towards one end and begin to roll.
- Stick the edges together and seal the inner filling. If needed apply more flour mixture on the edges.
- Transfer them to a plate and keep them covered to prevent drying. If the rolls dry up then the edges will open up.
Baking them in oven
- For baking - preheat the oven to 200 C. Brush the rolls with some melted butter. Bake for 10 to 12 mins or until golden on both the sides.
For pan frying or tawa frying
- Pan frying - Brush the bread rolls with a generous amount of melted butter, ghee or oil. Heat the pan until hot and toast these until golden. These rolls do not get even golden color but will turn crisp.
Frying bread rolls
- Heat only a few tbsp oil, just enough to partially cover the rolls while frying.
- When the oil turns hot, drop a small piece of bread. It must rise without browning quickly.
- Make sure the oil is hot enough. Then drop 2 to 4 rolls at one time depending on the size of the pan used.
- Fry until golden. Flip and fry evenly. Remove the bread rolls to kitchen tissues.
- Serve bread roll with sauce or green chutney.

Making bread rolls
6. There are 2 ways of making bread rolls. First one is to dip the bread slice lightly in water and squeeze off the excess water. Place the stuffing and roll it to seal well.
7. I am following the other method of rolling the bread and smearing some moisture to make it wet. Roll each of the slice with a rolling pin. This prevents the bread rolls from absorbing too much oil. The bread slice must become like a thin layer.
