Let's take a moment to talk about butter pav. If you've never tried it, you're seriously missing out. Imagine this: pillowy, soft pav (aka bread rolls) that are generously toasted with golden, melted butter. Sounds like the kind of indulgence you don't need to feel guilty about, right? Well, that's exactly what butter pav brings to the table—simple, delicious comfort in every bite. This isn't just bread. This is butter pav, and it's all about that perfectly crispy exterior, while the inside stays soft and fluffy—just begging for that extra slather of butter. Seriously, when you make a butter pav recipe, you're unlocking a level of flavor you didn't know you needed in your life. It's the kind of thing that can turn a regular afternoon into a gourmet experience, and trust us, it's easier than it sounds. All you need for a killer butter pav recipe is good quality pav (or soft dinner rolls), some unsalted butter, and a skillet. The magic happens when you toss that pav onto the hot pan, add a little butter, and toast it to crispy perfection. From there, you can enjoy them as is, or get wild and pair them with chutneys, curries, or even a cheeky cheese melt. No judgment here—butter pav is all about versatility. Whether you're serving the butter pav at a cozy dinner, a brunch spread. It's simple, satisfying, and will have you coming back for more.

Cooking steps for Butter Pav

  1. 1
    When it comes to quick bites that hit all the right notes—warm, buttery, crispy, and oh-so-satisfying—butter pav takes the crown. This butter pav recipe is as simple as it gets, but don't let that fool you; it's a total game-changer.
  2. 2
    Start with six pav rolls—fresh, soft, and basically little clouds of carb-y perfection. Slice each pav horizontally, but keep them connected at the hinge because it's all about that classic street-style vibe.
  3. 3
    Now, grab a non-stick pan or griddle and heat it over medium flame. Here's where the magic begins: drop in 4 tablespoons of butter, letting it melt and bubble into golden goodness. The sizzle? That's the sound of comfort food greatness in the making.
  4. 4
    Swirl the butter around to coat the pan evenly.
  5. 5
    Go for unsalted butter if you like controlling the flavor, but if salted is all you've got, it's still a win because salty, buttery pav is never a bad idea.
  6. 6
    Place the pav rolls cut-side down onto the buttery surface and press them lightly with a spatula for even toasting.
  7. 7
    Watch as the edges turn a glorious golden brown, soaking up all that buttery love while staying soft and fluffy on the inside.
  8. 8
    Flip the pav gently to give the tops a quick toast in the residual butter because, let's be real, there's no such thing as too much butter here.
  9. 9
    When both sides are crisped to perfection, slide them onto a plate and serve immediately. These buttery beauties are as versatile as they come—pair them with spicy bhaji, slather on some tangy chutney, or even enjoy them solo as a buttery indulgence.
