Laadi Pav / Soft Dinner Rolls

I cant imagine serving salads or soups without dinner rolls or french baguettes,dunno why we still stick with breads. Obviously if i dont want to get or forget to get baguettes from the nearby bakery, i'll get ready for making homemade dinner rolls. Few weeks back, we have invited few friends for a simple dinner at home and since they are from Tunisia, they love our Indian foods very much that too spicy. I prepared our family favourite and the famous Pav bhaji for them along with these soft dinner rolls aka Laadi pav to serve with. Everyone enjoyed thoroughly and i got many appreciation especially for this eggless super soft dinner rolls.

Watelse a food blogger need na! even my better half was very much proud about this dinner as its seems that those friends talked for a long about their first Indian dinner.These laadi pav suits prefectly to enjoy with bhaji,you can make vada pav very well with this pav or simply serve them as side with stir fries, however we loved having this pav even for our breakfast with butter and jam.Sending to Bake fest hosted by Manjula,event by Vardhini.
