For the second day of week 1 BM#64, under Shaped Buns, I have a Spicy Twisted Bun as a choice. These make a great late breakfast or Brunch dish, not to mention these are great to carry for travel food. The whole dish came about when Hubby dear wanted me to bake him some savory buns for his dinner. He wanted to skip his regular dinner during travel and wanted to carry something light and nonmessy.
I offered to bake some savory buns for him and made these delicious spicy buns and in the process wanted to make it all interesting by twisting it. Since I was packing him, I thought I might as well bake in the travel box. I made individual boxes in the end.
When Peddu saw these buns getting baked, he wanted his share for breakfast. I ended up packing individual boxes for each of them. On the whole, these spicy buns were so good! Hubby dear had this for his dinner while Peddu had this as his brunch the next day!

I have always enjoyed all savory buns and these were no exception. These were so good when served warm with a slice of salted butter, it takes you straight to heaven while it settles on the sides. Jokes apart I would prefer these spicy ones to sweet buns anytime! These remind of those spicy buns we used to get many years ago in Nilgiris. They no longer have it on their menu, I so miss it. Those buns were made of mint, coriander, and green chilies and used to be so spicy. Still you will end up enjoying it.
While I enjoy thinking about those days, you enjoy this bun!
