Bread Bajji is a quick to make evening snack that tastes awesome with the crispy bread fried with batter. The carom seeds and coriander leaves adds to the wholesome taste.
Bread Bajji is a snack from my childhood and Amma keeps making this bajji often. I was surprised when I realized that I haven’t blogged about this delicious snack from my childhood, which is now Konda’s favorite one too.
As I have already mentioned, my boys don’t eat sweet nor snacks like these. They must have tasted pakodas at some point, however, it is not something they would want to eat nor like. So they haven’t tasted onion bajji or cauliflower pakoda etc.
However, they are fond of the Cauliflower Manchurian in the pakoda stage as well, before adding them to the sauce. The other indian pakodas are not on their list. So when I planned for a Pakoda Platter, I had only the elders on the list.
I have always wanted to make Rajapalayam Pakoda which is a besan based thick crispy pakoda with cashews in it. Though I am averse to cashews and this is the only one I have ever eaten willingly. I had plans to make Rajapalayam Pakoda and ended up making another version of Cashew pakoda.

Since I also wanted my kids to enjoy some part of this platter, I included Paneer Sandwich Pakoda. Both Konda and Chinnu loved it.
Or if you are interested to read about Rice, then this Gobi Fried Rice would be awesome.
This Pakoda Platter was our meal on a Saturday night and all of us enjoyed it so much! I was thinking if everybody would be enough and over did on the cauliflower part that got left out, otherwise we polished off the platter.
For Day 3 in the Thalis & Platters, it is Pakoda Platter and today I am going to share Bread Bajji.
And if you are fond of Chili version, this Chili Gobi would be sinful!
This Bread Bajji is the day 3 dish from the Pakoda Platter that I made as part of the BM#116 Thalis & Platters. Check what I have for Platters for Kids Day 2 on SYL.
