Mangalore Bun


I made this delicious Mangalore bun for our weekend breakfast. It's soft,light and slightly sweet deep fried buns usually, served as tea time snack. I switch it into breakfast and i have no regret. 

As always, bananas are a must to have fruit in our house. Since, i have made lots of cooking and baking with banana, this is just keeper recepi. It's a very easy and simple recepi to put together which you may prepare the night before hitting bed and roll out the dough the next day for a satisfying breakfast.

There a such a beautiful air pocket in this Mangalore bun the result of the eight hours fermentation. Do not skip the fermentation process as this is a key for a perfect and delicious bun. Servd with coconut chutney and devour the wonderful taste of Mangalore bun aka banana puri 😉
