Bread Fritters

On a weekend evening fully relaxed and carried away by cool breeze now it is a must for snacks, evening won’t be complete without it that too on a weekend. I made this yummy snack with leftover bread which otherwise would have found its way to dustbin as this large loaf of plain bread is bit too much for 2 of us to finish. I gave them nice shape and made some stuffing which is quite quick and deep fried to get this crispy soft delicious snack. Make your favorite stuffing grab the leftover bread and make your yummy bread fritters quickly so here is the recipe.

Ingredients:

• 5 slices whole wheat bread
• 1 tbsp Corn flour
• Oil for deep frying
• 1-2 tbsp milk

For stuffing

• ½ tsp red chili powder
• 1 green chilli, finely chopped (optional)
• 1 small onion, finely chopped
• 1 small potato, grated
• 2 tbsp minced fresh green peas
• 1-2 tbsp chickpea flour/gram flour
• ½ tsp Ginger garlic paste
• Salt to taste

Directions:

Step 1: Mix all ingredients to prepare stuffing. Start with 1 tbsp of chickpea flour as this is used for binding purpose try to use minimum possible.

Step 2: Take a biscuit cutter and make round slices from each slice of bread. You can make 3 round slices from each slice as shown in the picture below.

Step 3: Brush the edges of cut pieces with milk so that the stuffing inside remains intact.

Step 4: Now place the prepared stuffing at the center of bread slice and spread evenly cover with the other slice and gently press the edges as shown in the picture.

Step 5: Heat oil in a frying pan in a medium heat. Let it be hot but don’t overheat as the bread turns dark brown and get burn instantly. I heated 150 ml of oil in medium heat for 2 minutes.

Step 6: Roll the bread slices on corn flour and drop them into oil. Fry them in batches till light golden brown and transfer them to paper towel.

Note:

• Serve hot with chili sauce.
• Use only the required quantity of oil for frying as the dipped corn flour will introduce a ton of particles.
