Savory Bengali French Toast

Debashis made this for breakfast last Sunday, and I meant to write about it.  If you like french toast and you like things spicy, you will LOVE this recipe.


White sandwich, challah, french, or we have used wheat sandwich.  Anything that will aborb egg.

Whip up the egg batter:
eggs
cilantro, washed, diced
melted butter
sliced & caramelized red onion, cooled
finely diced chilis (thai, serrano, etc)
salt, pepper
ground whole cumin

Vegan option is using a chickpea flour batter, in India it's a bread pakora.  Recipe some other time.

Heat pan on low heat, use melted butter, ghee or oil.

Place bread slices 30 sec. on each side in batter, then fry.

Serve with ketchup, spiced ketchup, Maggi indian ketchup, breakfast potatoes, thai sweet chili sauce, fresh cilantro-mint chutney, tomato-date chutney, anything.  Addictive!
