How to bake bread roll?
Preheat the oven at 180 degree Celsius, place bread roll on baking tray and spray some oil on it and then bake it for 10 to 15 minutes until golden brown in colour.
Tips for perfect Indian bread roll:
- Always fry the bread roll in the hot oil, otherwise, it will absorb the oil and will become soggy.
- Make sure to squeeze the water from the bread slice entirely. Otherwise, it will absorb the oil while frying.
- You don’t need to be perfect while shaping the bread roll, you can shape it into a ball or cylindrical shape as well.
- I have not removed the sides of the bread and I have seen that usually people remove it but it’s not necessary that brown sides of the bread make it more crispy.
- Don’t dip the bread in water for more than a second, more the time the bread will be in the water, the more you will unable to squeeze the water and it will break.
