Pav Buns are one of the main thing which you need as a side for vada pav or pav bhajji.These fluffy and soft buns are so tasty with anything..You can have it on its own too..They are readily available in supermarkets , but they are quite expensive here..So I thought to make it on my own..
This is the first time I am making it, the result was quite amazing..these buns turned out so soft and spongy..I totally loved it..The smell of freshly baked buns fills your house as you baked them..There is nothing better than baking your own bread or buns..
I actually made vada pav, potato pav, onion pav using this and served it with green chutney and tamarind chutney..They are totally delicious…Will post recipes soon...You could probably stuff anything in this from chicken filling to vegetable filling and enjoy this soft buns..I actually had one by just spreading some green chutney and tamarind chutney and sprinkled some garlic chutney over it and took my first bite, wow it was so good.. Would recommend you to try it once…So without any delay off you go to the recipe.
Hope you love this and let me know what you think..
Ingrediants:
All purpose Flour - 500 gms / 1/2 kg
Yeast - 1 tblspn
Butter - 4 tblspn melted + for brushing on top
Sugar -1 tblspn
Salt - 2 tsp
Warm Milk - as needed to make the dough
Method:
Add yeast and sugar to warm milk and mix well. Let it stand for 5-10 mins untill it becomes foamy.
Take flour in a mixing bowl and add salt in that. Mix this together so that the salt gets uniformly distributed.
Now pour the milk in this and mix well so that it forms a very soft dough.
Pour melted butter over this and mix well.Cover it with a damp cloth and let it rest for 1-1/2 hour till it doubles in size..
Now punch the air out and divide into equal portions..
Take a tray or any baking pan and arrange this balls equally spaced.
Now cover with a damp cloth and let it rest for 30 mins till it doubles in size.
Now put this in a preheated oven( 200 Degree C / 400 Degree F) for 15-20 mins untill the top turns golden and cooked.
Remove it from the oven and brush it with butter.
Remove the pav buns individually and serve it with pavbhajji or use it for vada pav or anything.

Wow! The dinner buns look so moist and fluffy. It goes well with anything from curry to slathering some good butter, and dunking it in a good soup. Thanks for sharing this Aarthi. I have been bookmarking so many recipes, but just don't have the chance to cook/ bake everything for now. Will just need my own home ;). Cheers~

Hi Aarthi,
Cant wait to make these buns. I have tried making buns at home several times but the buns never turn out as spongy as they come in bakeries. Can you tell me how long you kneaded the dough?
Regards
Lakshmi
Hi Aarthi,
Cant wait to try out the recipe for the buns. I have tried to bake buns several times but they just dont turn out really spongy as we get them in the bakery. I had a few doubts would be great if you could clarify them.
Did you use maida or bread flour?
How long did you knead the dough for?
Waiting for your reply.
Regards
Lakshmi
@Lakshmi
I used maida in this and i didn't knead the dough so long..Just 5 mins is good...
@Lakshmi and one more tip for soft buns is the dough should be very soft and not stiff...that makes the buns so soft
hi aarthi....
I loved your site so much...iam planning to make pav buns ....san u tell me 500gms is equal to how many cups...your buns so perfect n superb...thanks for sharing....
@AnonymousThanks dear...500 gms is around 4 cups..
ur buns are so soft and fluffy...can u tell what brand of yeast u uesd?
Hi Aarthi, came across your lovely blog today. It was very nice reading all the recipes and also about you, infact I'm still going through the blog.
I recently started baking, will definitely try this. Looks amazing.
Aarti, can we use warm water instead of milk ?
@Jazzyes you can use. But milk makes it even more softer
