Tadka Bread Snack with Yoghurt dip


Being a foodie I like to watch all cookery shows that comes in TV and language is not a barrier for me.I watch Telugu,Kannada,Tamil,Rajasthani,Hindi,English anything which is related to cooking and I have scribbled so many books with those recipes.As it is very difficult for me to remember which one I liked among them and which I wanted to give a try,I generally rate those recipes in my book.And you would have understood by now that this recipe is one among those recipes which I wanted to try from my book.
This is a very simple and yummy recipe which can be had either as a breakfast or evening snack.
The flavor in this snack is really amazing,and I am sure that your kids will definitely love this.

Ingredients:


8-10 Bread Slices with Crusts
1 Big Onion,thinly sliced(Julienne cut)

3-4 green chillies finely chopped

1 Big Tomato,roughly chopped

1 1/2 tbsp Yoghurt,beaten

1 tsp jeera

1/2 tsp mustard seeds

1/2 tsp Sugar

1 tsp Lemon juice,fresh

1/4 tsp Turmeric powder

2 tbsp chopped coriander

Salt to taste
2 tbsp Oil/Butter

Method:
  • Toast the Bread slices either on Tawa or Toaster until light golden Brown,cut them into square blocks.
  • Heat oil in a wide bottomed pan and crackle mustard seeds and jeera.
  • Add thinly sliced Onions and finely chopped green chillies and add sugar to it and fry until the onions are caramelized and turn golden in color.
  • Add Turmeric,salt,Yoghurt to it and fry for a minute.Now add the toasted bread cubes to it and fry until its crispy.
  • Add Chopped Tomatoes to it and cook for a minute(do not overcook).
  • Add coriander leaves,lemon juice to it and mix properly.
Serve it hot with cool Yoghurt dip.



Yoghurt dip:

Ingredients:
1/2 Cup beaten fresh curd
1/4 tsp black pepper powder
1/4 tsp red chilli powder

Salt to taste


Method:
  • Mix all the ingredients until it forms smooth and creamy mixture.If the curd is sour,add half spoon of sugar while whisking it.Hand whisker works better for this job.
  • Chill it for 15-20 mins.
Serve this with Tadka Bread Snack.
