Bread roll ~ with potato fillings
This snack always reminds me of Leela teacher, my school teacher as well as a family friend. I have never had this snack other than made by her. When ever she would host a treat for us, this would be one of the items in the menu and that would make me soooo happy :).
I have seen her make it then. Even though I was not a big fan of cooking, I had a vague memory of the process. Being a novice to cooking in the early days of married life, this used to be one of the tea time snacks that I used to make often and feel proud of myself :).
But this snack was long forgotten in the journey of cooking and trying new things. The other day, we had some left over bread and I had placed it in the refrigerator. I always try making bread pudding out of it, to utilize the remaining bread pieces, rather than wasting them. This time around, I thought of making the bread roll recipe to refresh our memories.
This recipe was also one of the earliest ones to get into the drafts and long forgotten about. Whenever I thought of publishing it, the pictures made me think otherwise and to rework on them before I do so. So the last time I made, I captured them and before it gets down deep into the draft, I thought of publishing it :).

Ingredients
- 1 large potato
- 1/2 cup of green peas
- 1/4 tsp of turmeric powder
- 1/2 tbsp of chopped ginger
- 1 tbsp of chopped onion
- 1 tbsp of chopped green chilly
- 1 tbsp of chopped coriander leaves
- Salt to taste
- 6-7 slices of bread
- Oil for deep frying
Method
For the filling
- Boil the potato and mash it.
- In a skillet, heat 2 tbsp of oil. Once hot, drop in the onion, ginger, green chilly, turmeric powder and coriander leaves and saute it.
- Add the mashed potatoes and green peas and cook it for about 10 mins.
For the bread roll
- Slice off the hard ends of the bread slices.
- Take some water in a bowl. Dip one side of the bread slice in water. Keep it in between your palms and squeeze out the water.
- Place 1 tbsp of potato filling in it. Roll and form oval shaped rolls out of it.
- Heat the oil in a deep bottom pan. Once hot, drop in the rolls. Fry it till all its sides get golden brown in colour.
- Serve it hot with tomato ketchup.
Tips
- Do not dip the entire bread in water, but just enough for one side to get wet.
- Not squeezing out the water out of bread completely, would lead to the rolls absorbing more oil.
- You could keep the sliced off ends of the bread to make bread crumbs out of it.
