Masala Bread Toast - Bakery Style
Wednesday, June 26, 2024
Growing up in Bangalore, Masala bread-toast was one of the favorite evening tea-time snacks. We had a Iyengar Bakery near our home, they used to start selling Masala-Toast and Veg-puff at 4pm everyday. It was perfect timing for us to run afterschool to grab warm, right out of the oven snacks.
Now that it is not possible, I try to make them at home over weekends. Well, since I end up making so many of them, it ends up as our dinner.
Ingredients:
