easy iftar recipes - bread pakoda

MASHAALLAH, this snack is very delicious and here's the recipe.........

Bread pakodas:


Ingredients:
1 loaf of bread (sliced)
1 cup water

(for filling):
3 medium sized chicken breasts (boiled)
1/2 cup sliced olives
1 cup feta cheese
1 tsp chilli sauce
1 tbsp ginger and garlic paste
black pepper and salt to taste

Method:
In a mixer, mix all the ingredients of filling (except feta cheese) till combined together. Now add the feta cheese and spin it in the mixer for just a few seconds so that the cheese chunks are still visible. Remove the filling into a bowl/plate.


In another bowl (it should be wide enough to dip a bread slice) take some water and add a pinch of salt to it. Dip the bread slice in the water and press the slice between your palms to remove the excess water. Now add the filling about 1 tbsp in the center of the bread slice and fold it in (as shown in the video at the end) to make it into an oval-shaped ball.


Keep the Pakodas/balls in a plate to air dry for a few minutes. Deep fry the bread pakodas till golden brown.

heres the video tutorial..........

MASHAALLAH, my mom is a brilliant chef (i know every child thinks the same) but this is not only my own view but the people who have tasted her handmade food really thinks she is a master chef, MASHAALLAH. Now this is sounding more like a mother's day post, so heres me signing off, try this recipe, INSHAALLAH, you will love it too.

    1. mmmmm imli ki chutney, these chutnies do go well with the potato filling version of these bread pakodas but this chicken filling is better accompanied with mayochup, you will find the recipe at the end of this post.
