Potato Pan Rolls
When I saw this recipe in Reader's Digest, I was curious on how you make a bread roll with potato as one of the ingredients. I regularly baked Pan de Sal or Filipino bread roll for my family but only used regular ingredients such as yeast and flour.
The main difference is adding the mashed potato. This made the bread roll denser and heavier than my usual Pan de Sal, but it retained its delicious taste.
