The paneer bread rolls in this site are possibly the most popular recipe I have posted. It's ironic and funny, I had seen a recipe in a cook book and then made those bread rolls based on my memory.

Those paneer bread rolls then went on to inspire so many food bloggers, online magazines, print magazines, and even newspapers. Although the pictures in that post are not really high quality or beautifully styled, they have been copied and used the most, with and without my permission.

Anyway, I have been making bread rolls with various fillings over the years but hardly ever when I had the time and patience to take pictures of every step of the cooking process. Finally, a few weekends ago I decided to do just that so I can share my second favourite bread rolls - bread potato rolls!

Over the years and many trials, I have perfected the potato filling to my taste and preference. I love the addition of peas, for example, and really browning the onions to an almost burnt consistency because that caramelised taste and texture really stands out as you bite into the bread rolls.

Notes:
Leavened pre-sliced soft bread works best for this recipe so it will be flexible and malleable to be filled and rolls
You can add tomatoes to the onion mixture and cook it well
Instead of green peas, you can also add corn
Some chopped cashew nuts would taste fabulous in the filling too
