The Iyengar Bakery Style Masala Bread Recipe is  delicious and spicy open sandwich that is very popular dish in Bangalore. This recipe is a take on the Iyengar bakery bread from my hometown, Bangalore!  In the midst of the well worn, yet bustling lane of our very own 'DVG Road' in 'Gandhi Bazaar' in Basavangudi, Bangalore, lies this hub of nostalgic delicious goodies, Iyengar Bakery. I remember very clearly how it would open at 4 in the afternoon promptly every single day without fail, letting in the eager queue of regular customers. It works on the 'first come, first served' basis of course. The sooner you get into the queue, the likelier you will be rewarded with your choice of goodies. A tad later and its all gone. I'm also pretty sure they keep their recipes a closely guarded secret. What follows here is an attempt to recreate the same masala bread following on from recipes around the web.

Serve the Iyengar Bakery Style Masala Bread as an appetizer or a tea time snack or even pack them into the kids lunch box.
