This is such a gorgeous snack or a breakfast option. Definitely the vegetarian savory cousin of the French toast. I would love to taste it from a street food vendor.
Love it. I remember seeing that post on your feed. Instead of frying, love this option of toasting. Gonna try this soon. Great share Preeti.
Besan toast looks scrumptious preeti, i make besan ka chila regularly, making it as a toast looks yummm!!! That live video with gayathri’s voice at the back explaining to somebody is so awesome!! Must be very nostalgic to relive na!
I usually have my local Hindi radio on in the mornings while I prepare breakfast. So the RJ usually wants his listeners to call him and tell him what exciting breakfast they have had. This morning a man calls to tell him that his wife prepared for him bread besan toast or vegan French toast. Love the video on the street food of Delhi. How all they have to innovate new recipes to remain in the game.
Easy and fuss free one. I mostly make it as a quick breakfast.
