    If you get to travel in Bangalore Salem highway, you can see a lot of Iyengar bakeries .one of the specialty dish in Iyengar bakery is the Masala buns and when we were in Bangalore we usually have a lot of travel in that roads, so I happen to taste the buns couple of times, I is so different and tasty compared to the regular milk/sweet buns. Since then I was in my  to ‘do list .So finally I got a chance to a try it out and now let’s get started with the recipe.
