Brun / Kadak Pav with homemade fresh Fig Jam and Masala Chai (Tea).


Brun / Kadak Pav with homemade fresh Fig Jam and Masala Chai (Tea).........


The famous Brun Pav / Bread is a crusty, round-shaped bread with a very soft, spongy centre. It is very famous in Maharashtra especially Mumbai and is one the staple meal or snack enjoyed by young / old. It is also known as Kadak Pav for its crusty top. The Brun Pav / Kadak pav is enjoyed most with fresh butter or jam. Children enjoy it both with jam or butter and sugar. The Brun / Kadak pav is slit open, at the center, sliced into half and spread with butter and jam or butter withsugar sprinkled over it and then served. The process of making Brun / Kadak pav is “steam baking” which gives brun / Kadak pav the golden colour and crust. 


There are many bakeries, almost in every other street which caters to the demand of this special crusty bread. People enjoy it the most for breakfast. It is also eaten in some parts by dipping it in hot Masala Chai. The taste of which is really awesome. 


To make Brun / Kadak Pav with homemade fresh Fig Jam : I have used bakery bought Brun / Kadak pav here. Just slit and cut open the Brun / Kadak pav horizontally through the center. Apply fresh fig jam evenly on both inner sides of the bread. Put it back into shape ie. Close the pav back again. Press down a bit so that they get stuck to each other. Then with a serrated knife cut them into strips. This way you get to eat the pav bite sized. Serve immediately with Tea for breakfast.
