When I made Pav bhaji<\/a> the first time after moving from India to the US,  it didn’t taste as good as back home because of the bread.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Store-bought dinner rolls\/burger buns here are not the same as what we get in India.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here is the US, bread is very sweet. Plus the texture is also very different than what we get in India.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So I started making ladi pav at home. This recipe is close to fabulous Mumbai ladi pavs plus it requires very few ingredients.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I love that they have just a hint of sweetness but it’s not too much like store-bought ones. They are perfect for breakfast, lunch, dinner, snack, – you name it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There is truly no smell as amazing as fresh warm bread or pav coming out of the oven!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ingredients required –<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

To make this recipe, you will need –<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Milk<\/strong>: Use whole milk.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Milk powder<\/strong>: Milk powder makes this recipe rich.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Yeast<\/strong>: All yeasts will work in this recipe. If you have Instant dry yeast, it can be added straight to dry ingredients and doesn’t require any sitting or proofing. Active dry yeast needs to be dissolved in a liquid before adding to a recipe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sugar<\/strong>: Sugar feeds the yeast and helps in activation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Butter:<\/strong> Butter makes this roll rich. Make sure it’s room temperature or melted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Salt: <\/strong>Skip if you are using salted butter<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Flour\/maida<\/strong>: You can use all-purpose flour or bread flour in this recipe. You can use whole wheat flour too. The roll would be a little bit dense and not as light and fluffy. I recommend using half wheat and half white flour.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Unsalted Butter<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

How do you make them from scratch? Step by step process –<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Step 1 – Activate the yeast<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Warm milk (110 degrees, Neither cold nor hot, it should be warm), add sugar and yeast. Mix them well, close the lid and keep it aside for 10 minutes or until it gets activated. It should look frothy after 10 minutes. (Photo 1 to 3)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Step 2 – Preparing the dough<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

In a standing mixer<\/a> bowl, take all-purpose flour, salt, and milk powder. Mix them well. (photo 4 to 6)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Add frothy yeast mixture into the flour mixture and make a dough. It should be like a sticky paste. (photo 7)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Once it comes together add the butter and knead it further for 8 to 10 minutes. (Photo 8)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It will turn from sticky mass of the dough to a beautifully soft, and tacky dough. Scrap<\/a> in between if it sticks to the bowl while kneading. (Photo 9)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
