Ingredients
For the Stuffing
3 medium boiled potatoes (mashed)
1 small onion (finely chopped)
2 green chilies (finely chopped)
1 tablespoon coriander leaves (chopped)
½ teaspoon red chili powder
½ teaspoon turmeric powder
½ teaspoon garam masala
Salt to taste
1 teaspoon lemon juice
For the Bread Bites
6-8 bread slices
3-4 tablespoons cornflour slurry (cornflour + water)
Oil for frying (preferably Purti Kachi Ghani Mustard Oil)
Preparation
Prepare the Filling
In a mixing bowl, add mashed potatoes, chopped onions, green chilies, coriander leaves, red chili powder, turmeric, garam masala, salt, and lemon juice. Mix everything well until the stuffing becomes smooth and flavorful.
Prepare the Bread
Remove the edges of the bread slices and lightly flatten them using a rolling pin.
Make the Cornflour Slurry
Mix cornflour with a little water to create a smooth paste. This will help seal the bread bites.
Steps to Make Crispy Stuffed Bread Bites
Step 1: Cut the Bread
Cut each bread slice into four equal pieces to create small squares.
Step 2: Add the Stuffing
Place a small portion of the prepared potato mixture onto one bread piece.
Step 3: Seal the Bread
Cover with another bread piece and seal the edges using cornflour slurry. Press gently so the filling stays inside.
Step 4: Heat the Oil
Heat Purti Kachi Ghani Mustard Oil in a deep frying pan or kadai on medium heat.
Step 5: Fry the Bread Bites
Carefully drop the stuffed bread pieces into the hot oil and fry them until they turn golden brown and crispy.
Step 6: Drain the Oil
Remove the bread bites and place them on a paper towel to absorb excess oil.
Serving Suggestions
Serve the crispy stuffed bread bites hot with:
Tomato ketchup
Green chutney
Masala chai
They make an excellent evening snack, party appetizer, or quick comfort food.
Tips for Perfect Crispy Bread Bites
Always seal the bread edges properly so the filling doesn’t come out during frying.
Fry on medium heat to ensure the bread becomes crispy without burning.
Mustard oil gives a stronger flavor, so heating it well before frying helps balance the taste.
You can also add grated cheese or paneer to the stuffing for extra richness.
For a healthier version, the bread bites can be air-fried or baked.
