Instructions
To create your flavorful Masala French Toast, begin by preparing the topping. Finely chop the onion, tomato, and green chili, placing them in a bowl for later use. Set this mixture aside to let the flavors meld.
Next, take each slice of whole wheat brown bread and cut them diagonally into two triangles, ensuring they are easy to dip and cook. Arrange these triangles on a plate or cutting board.
In a deep and wide bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, red chili powder, and black pepper for a few minutes until everything is well combined and frothy, ensuring a rich, flavorful coating for the bread.
Now, heat the butter in a skillet over medium heat, allowing it to melt and coat the bottom of the pan. Dip one triangle of bread into the egg mixture, ensuring it is evenly coated on all sides. Using a slotted spoon, gently transfer the egg-coated bread slice to the preheated skillet. Cook each piece until it is golden brown and crispy on both sides, flipping occasionally for even cooking.
Once the bread is beautifully toasted, transfer the Masala French Toast to a wire rack to cool slightly while you repeat the process with the remaining triangles. This step helps maintain their crispness.
After all the toast is cooked, arrange them artfully on a serving platter. Spoon a generous amount of the onion mixture onto each piece of French toast, allowing the fresh flavors to shine. For an extra burst of taste, garnish with finely chopped coriander leaves and finish by sprinkling a dash of chaat masala over the top, adding a hint of spice.
Serve your Masala French Toast warm, accompanied by a side of refreshing green chutney and a comforting cup of tea or coffee. This dish makes for an inviting breakfast or a delightful snack any time of the day, bringing a taste of India right to your kitchen.
Enjoy this savory and aromatic Masala French Toast, and watch as it becomes a new favorite for family and friends alike!
