I’m here today to share Eggless Pav Bread Buns Recipe.
Nothing makes a Homemade Pavs/Buns special quite like dinner rolls. You can
make Pavs from your favorite bread mix. Soft Pavs/Dinner Rolls are usually a
little richer than bread recipes with more sugar and fat than corresponding
bread recipes. This feather-soft bun is best had with a spicy bhaji or
vegetable curry, but you can also serve it as a sandwich lined with chutney and
packed with potato vadas.
Preparation Time: 1 ½ hours
Baking Time: 20-25 Minutes
Serves : 8 to 10 Pavs
Ingredients:
All Purpose Flour/ Maida 2
cups
Organic Sugar 1 Tablespoon
Salt ½ Teaspoon
Melting Butter /Oil
2 Tablespoons
Extra flour for kneading the dough
For Proofing Yeast:
Warm Milk ¾- 1
Cup
Sugar 1
Tablespoon
Instant Active Dry Yeast 1 Tablespoon
Other Ingredients:
Milk for brushing
Butter for brushing
Extra Butter and flour for greasing and dusting the pan
Method:
Proofing yeast:
- Warm milk in a bowl, add sugar and then yeast. Mix well and keep in a warm place for 10 to 15 minutes till it becomes frothy
Making Dough
- In a bowl add all-purpose flour and a little salt and sugar.
- Mix and make a well in the center of the flour.
- Add the yeast mixture to the well.
- Add butter (or Oil) and knead it for 10 Minutes.
- Once kneaded, insert the fingertip into the dough and it should bounce back clean, which means the dough is ready.
- Add the oil-butter mixture. Knead again for 5 to 8 minutes by stretching the dough and folding it back till it is smooth and elastic
- Now transfer the dough to a big bowl, cover and keep aside in a warm place about one hour (or more depending on your climatic conditions).
- The dough will rise and double or even triple in volume.
- Once the dough has risen, remove it from the bowl and knead it for another 2-3 minutes. This step is important for lighter pavs.
- Divide the dough into 12 equal portions. Roll each portion of the dough into a smooth round.
- Grease a cake tin with oil and place the shaped dough balls. Now cover the tin with damp cloth or a plastic wrap and keep aside for another half an hour (or a little more) till they rise.
- Remove the damp cloth after 30 minutes, you will see that the pavs have risen.
- Brush the dough with the milk.
Baking Pavs:
- Bake it in a pre-heated oven at 200°c (400°f
- Place the cake tin in the oven and bake pavs for 20 Minutes.
- The pavs should evenly brown from top.
- Turn off the oven and remove the pavs.
- Once cooled, de-mould it and brush the Pavs with butter and cool completely.
- ENJOY with Pav Bhaji.!!
- Store pavs in a zip lock bag or airtight box to prevent them from drying. They are good to go for 2 to 3 days. You can also refrigerate them for a week or more.
