Stuffed Bread Pakora Rolls
Ingredients
Equipment
Method
- In a bowl, mash the boiled potatoes until smooth (small chunks are fine if you prefer texture). Add chopped onion, grated ginger, boiled green peas, chilli flakes, chopped coriander, black pepper, amchur, garam masala and salt. Mix well and taste — adjust spice or salt.
- Trim the crusts off each bread slice. On each slice, spread an even layer of the potato mixture.
- Starting from one edge, gently roll each slice into a tight roll. If needed, press the seam lightly so it sticks (a little water on the edge helps).
- In another bowl, whisk gram flour with turmeric, red chilli powder, ajwain and salt. Add water gradually to form a smooth, thick batter (similar to dhokla batter — it should coat the roll without dripping away). Stir in the chopped coriander leaves.
- Dip each bread roll into the besan batter, turning to coat fully. Allow excess batter to drip off.
- Heat a heavy tawa or non-stick pan over medium heat. Grease lightly with oil. Place coated rolls on the tawa. After 30–40 seconds, use a spatula to gently turn each roll so they cook evenly. Drizzle a little oil on top and sides and continue roasting, turning occasionally, until all sides are golden brown and crispy (about 3–5 minutes per side depending on heat).
- When rolls are crisp and evenly roasted, remove to a plate. Slice each roll diagonally into 2–3 pieces (optional) and serve hot with mint-coriander chutney or tomato ketchup.

Tips & Variations
- For extra crunch, shallow-fry the rolls briefly in a little oil instead of roasting. But roasting keeps them lighter.
- Use sandwich bread that’s not too thin — very thin bread can become soggy when coated. Slightly stale bread works well because it holds stuffing better.
- Add grated cheese or crumbled paneer to the stuffing for a richer taste.
- To make ahead: prepare stuffing and batter in advance; assemble and roast just before serving to keep rolls crisp.
- To make it gluten-free, use gluten-free bread and chickpea (besan) batter is already gluten-free — just verify bread choice.
Approximate Nutrition (Per Roll)
Estimate: 1 roast-bread pakora roll (without extra oil for shallow-frying) contains approximately 180–260 kcal, depending on bread type and oil used. It provides carbohydrates from bread and potatoes, protein from gram flour and peas, and small amounts of fat from the light oil used for roasting. For a lighter option use whole-wheat bread and minimal oil.
Frequently Asked Questions
- Can I deep-fry these rolls?
- Yes — you can deep-fry coated rolls for a crispier, richer result. Keep an eye on temperature so they brown but don’t burn.
- How to stop bread from getting too soggy?
- Don’t over-wet the batter; make it thick enough to coat. Use slightly stale bread or press the stuffing firmly so juices don’t ooze out. Roast immediately after coating.
- Can I freeze assembled rolls?
- It’s better to freeze uncoated rolls (without batter). Thaw and then coat & roast/fry when ready to serve for best texture.
