100% Whole wheat masala buns Easy to prepare, No kneading required, crunchy top and soft and fluffy from inside.
Wanted to make these since long time and found this amazing reason to prepare them. As one of my friend was coming to visit me after a really long time (she likes all my bakes but she like savoury over sweet) So thought of making these spicy buns stuffed with potato masala.
It was a hit, she just loved the spicy masala filling inside the softly baked spiced buns. She even asked me to make a batch for her family to take back home. So will make some more for her tomorrow.
