Roasted paneer slabs/ bread roll in steps. Easy to make snack for evenings. Paneer stuffed bread rolls are roasted on a skillet.

Bread rolls are one of the favourite snacks that has been relished by all. The bread is stuffed with a filling that is prepared, rolled , sealed and deep fried. But here, it is shallow fried, thus a guilt free snack.

The first time I prepared, the rolls came out perfectly, but alas, then I had not clicked the photos. The next time I prepared, I could not make the rolls, I just put the filling in between and sealed it. Well, this is the story that I had to narrate here. Anyway, this is one of those recipes that I have cherished and will be making quite often. It is tasty, not deep fried and has been liked at home.
