These fusion dinner rolls are made with coconut milk and are infused with flavorful Indian spices that'll dazzle your taste buds! They are super soft, savory, a little sticky, and will be one of your new favorite things.

This particular recipe is perfect for busy days when you need a filling snack or an easy recipe for side to pair with your main entree. Just mix together your dough ingredients, let the dough double in size, divide dough into small balls, allow it to rise, and bake to perfection.

Serve these delicious coconut rolls with a mustard seed, curry leaf oil tempering just before serving. They will remind you of dhokla(steamed savory snack cakes) and are perfect served as a side instead of naan . Or, as a snack with vegan butter and mint chutney!

These easy rolls are simple to make and are a great place to start if you haven't made your own dough before.

The coconut flavor combined with Indian spices make this soft dinner roll tasty enough on its own, but if you want to turn this dish into a complete meal, they pair wonderfully with my Vegan Chickpea Rice Soup, Chataka Dal, Vegan Malabar Curry with Veggies and Beans, or my Shahi Tofu Kofta Casserole!
