Spinach Masala Bread Rolls


        Wow!! Guess what? This is my 1000th post. What an amazing journey it was since I started blogging from August 2014. I take this opportunity to thank my family, friends and each and everyone of you all for being there with me in this culinary journey of mine. Thanks again for all the support in helping me reach this milestone, without which it would not have been possible.  

          Now coming to the recipe. This is just a simple homemade freshly baked Masala Bread Rolls with some spinach puree (that was leftover from making spinach naan the other day). Relish this as an evening tea-time snack. You can also have these bread rolls with soup, with some cheese in between, as a vada pav or burger. So check out an easy step by step pictorial recipe to prepare it.





          I must confess that this blogging journey was simply awesome. It was sometimes hectic and time consuming, but nevertheless, I enjoyed every bit of it. Absolutely no regrets and I kept learning on the way. Am still learning something new every other day and trying to improve in every sense possible. 

          The most challenging part was in the presentation. I try to give an artistic touch to the dish and make it more appealing as well as appetizing. I promise to keep this flow of easy, simple and interesting (healthy too) recipes coming your way. Hoping to have your support in my future endeavors in the blogging world.





  • 2 cups plain flour
  • pinch of salt
  • 1/2 tsp. garam masala powder

          In a small bowl, add the yeast, sugar and water. Mix and cover. Keep aside for 10-15 minutes. By then it will froth up and it is ready to be used.

          In a large bowl, add the flour and all the dry spices. Mix well and add the spinach puree along with the yeast mix.

          Combine well and knead for 2-3 minutes into a very soft dough . Add more lukewarm if required. Cover with a wet cloth and keep aside in a warm place for 30 minutes.

          Add the butter and again knead for 2-3 minutes. Cover and keep aside for a further 30 minutes.

          Punch back the dough and divide into equal round balls. Place them on a baking sheet, cover with a wet cloth and keep aside for an hour.

          Brush with melted butter and sprinkle some sesame seeds & nigella seeds. Bake in a preheated oven at 200 degrees C. for 22-25 minutes. 

          Cool on a wire rack and relish as an evening tea-time snack. You can also have these masala bread rolls with soup, with some cheese in between, as a vada pav or burger.
