Bread Pakoda is an easy snack recipe. This is the most loved street food in India. Bread pakoda is vegan.
In this recipe, the potato mixture is stuffed in bread slices and deep-fried with a coating of gram flour. You can air-fry or bake them, too, to make this healthy, but authentically, these are deep-fried foods.
I make this often for weekend breakfast as my family is very fond of it. Another very frequent breakfast item isย potato sandwiches andย bread rolls,ย which are a favorite of my kid. If you are looking forย Indian breakfast recipesย orย Indian street food recipes, this is one of the most popular ones. It is a must-try if you have not tried one.
Bread Pakora (Stuffed Bread Pakoda)
This is easy to make and hardly takes 30 minutes to prepare 4 - 5 servings. If you have lots of leftover mashed potatoes, you can also use them in this recipe. You must prepare the masala or stuffing and refrigerate it for future use.
I make spiced potato stuffing for my bread pakora. However, you can add mixed vegetables, scrambled paneer, or sliced paneer as stuffing.
Usually, I saute boiled potatoes with other aromatic spices to make stuffing. Then, I place them evenly on slices and cover them with another slice. I dip the sandwiches in spiced chickpea flour batter and deep fry them.
Serve with dhania chutney (coriander dip) or tomato ketchup.
