In our household food is never wasted. We make good use of our fridge. Bread however loses its freshness even though sometimes we steam left over bread to get back its freshness but it never gets back to its original condition.
I use left over bread to make what we call ‘dahi wada’ Dahi wada is usually prepared from black gram paste. I used bread instead.
This is how it is made
Soak bread in water for a while and then squeeze out the bread.Add chopped green chilies and chopped onion with salt to taste. Make balls.Deep fry these balls. Prepare curds (yoghurt) by beating it gently. Add sugar. Place the deep fried balls in curds after they are cooled. Sprinkle chopped coriander leaves and a dash of red chili powder.
An ideal snack for any time. We have it for breakfast.

I have heard a few of the TV chefs say always keep chicken broth in your pantry and throw your leftovers into the pot with the broth. It usually makes a great soup.
With some imagination sky is the limit to convert left overs to something exotic.
I always consume food scraps because I never throw away food.
There is effort put in while preparing food and so one should not discard left over food.
Thank for sharing I usually think of new ways to use leftover food.
I use left over food but your recipe is a great idea..Thanks for sharing
I use leftovers as well. This is a new process you have written about.
We always use up our leftovers. It makes for an easy dinner.
I hate wasting food and I always come up with something for the leftovers. Stale (one day old) bread becomes french toast.
That is a good idea. Bread is pretty versatile.
It is indeed. Bread puddings too are often on the menu when there is some left over slices.
I am not fond of using leftovers except for bread. It can be fried or can be a filling for the omelet.
Does it mean you dump left overs in the bin?
