Instructions

Boil and Prepare the Potatoes:
Begin by boiling the potatoes in water until they are tender and easily mashable. Once the potatoes are cooked, peel them while still hot and mash them thoroughly. -
-
Mix the Potato Filling:
In a large mixing bowl, add the mashed potatoes along with the finely chopped coriander leaves, chopped green chilies, and chaat masala powder. Taste and adjust the salt as needed to suit your preference. -
Assemble the Toast:
Take each slice of bread and spread about two tablespoons of the prepared mashed potato mixture evenly over one side. Set aside. -
Coat with Sesame Seeds:
Pour the sesame seeds onto a flat plate. Place the bread slices with the potato mixture face-down onto the sesame seeds. Gently press the bread down to ensure the potato mixture gets fully coated with the sesame seeds. -
Fry the Toast:
Heat a skillet or frying pan on medium heat and add a dollop of butter. Once the butter melts and starts to bubble, place the bread slices in the skillet with the sesame-covered side facing down. Fry the toast for about 10 minutes, or until the sesame seeds turn a golden brown and slightly crisp. -
Flip and Finish:
Flip the bread slices over and cook the other side for an additional 2-3 minutes until it becomes golden and crisp. -
Serve and Enjoy:
Serve the Sesame Potato Toast hot, paired with a cup of masala chai for a perfect tea time snack or as an appetizer for your next dinner party.
Tips:
- For a variation, you can add finely chopped onions or tomatoes to the potato mixture for added flavor.
- If you prefer a healthier version, you can lightly toast the bread without butter, or use olive oil instead of butter for frying.
Enjoy this crispy and flavorful Sesame Potato Toast as a delectable snack, perfect for any occasion!
