Besan Toast is the vegetarian version for French Toast, whenever mama would make french toast for us, she would make besan toast for herself since she does not have eggs. Its easy and quick to make. I will just give the ingredients and the method, quantities vary as per taste.
Ingredients
bread slices
besan (gram flour)
water
onions, chopped
fresh coriander leaves
green chillies or red chili flakes
salt
grated carrot (optional)
cabbage, chopped (optional)
oil or butter
Method
- Cut the bread diagonally, you can even make 2 rectangles or 4 squares, or even use cookie cutter to get different shapes to please kids.
- Mix besan, onions, coriander leaves, green chilies, vegetables and the salt.
- Add water to the besan, to make a thick batter.
- Heat a tawa on medium heat.
- Dip the bread pieces in the besan mix and place on the hot tawa.
- Add some oil/butter, cook till the side facing down is golden brown and crisp.
- Flip and cook this side to golden brown and crisp, adding more oil if needed.
- Serve with ketchup or chutney.

A nice alternative to eggs in French Toast.
They look even better than French toast, love the crispy brown crust it formed!
Puffy and delicious, great for breakfast!:)
i love these. they look yum!
like using besan while toasting bread, looks delish.
Thts so new to me,never tried roasting these on tawa.Would love to have this ,since so many times when i make chilra i dont feel like making chappatis,and somehow dont like to have it with bread,unless i fry the batter as sanna pakora.So now i know...beech(middle) ka rasta ekdum perfect hai :-)
Isn't this the way bread pakoda is made ... only your version as toast seems so much healthier. Good one Medha. :-)
lovely blog Medha
