About this Recipe...
Indian Pav Bread or dinner rolls is a soft, spongy bread which is used to make many indian street foods like pav bhaji, bada pav, dabeli and many more. I have been eating pav bread with butter since my childhood and it was one of my favorite evening snack item.
In India we can easily find pav bread at stores but here in US, I am unable to get the same kind of bread. So thought to make it at home and voila I made the same smooth soft bread at home which I used to eat since my childhood.
Very often I am craving for pav bhaji and vada pav, so started to bake these golden breads at home. Every time I bake it, I feel so satisfied. So with little interest, patience and dedication and you can create magic at your own home kitchen.
