Quick Bread Stir Fry

One of my mom’s quick and instant recipe is this Quick Bread Stir Fry! Me and my sis used to always carry Bread Stir Fry with vegetables into our lunch box. I vividly remember my sis used to not carry this Quick Bread Stir Fry as she used to find them jinxed. As far as I am concerned I freak on them. After a real long time this morning I made Quick Bread Stir Fry finally. We had bread and I instantly thought of making this quick recipe as we were falling short of time. My family relished this instant snack. Though I missed my sis a lot while making them.

It’s Dussera in India and we have already consumed too many sweets. So make this spicy and namkeen Bread stir Fry……

You could make this Quick Bread Stir Fry with brown bread. To make more healthy add veggies like boiled carrots, onion and garlic. Just ensure the Quick Bread Stir Fry doesn’t becomes mushy. This will taste great if the bread is on the crispier side.

Well folks you could come out with your own version of Quick Bread Stir Fry ;)…. May be you can create more innovations with it than me….

I won’t take much of your time. Try this recipe quickly may be when you are really busy and want a quick snack 🙂
