After some time Yesterday baked these flavorful, light, airy, chewy and delicious Garlic Knots.

Garlic Pull Apart Roll

             It was my long time wish to make Garlic Pull apart rolls and i made it successfully a few days back. It came out really good and the taste and texture was beyond my expectation. And it also so simple and easy to make.

For me n my H i added some finely chopped green chillies to the garlic spread and we enjoyed the spicy garlic rolls. My kids, really they don't have patience till i took pictures, you won't believe i took about 116 shots for this rolls...out of that 6-7 were the best. Remaining all were blurred because they were shaking my hands n touching the rolls and don't even allow me to do something creatively.
