Veg Masala Toast

Bakery Style Masala Toast is a quick and easy recipe for breakfast or evening snack along with some hot or cold drink. Iyengar Bakery used to have these Masala Toast in their evening menu, during my college days me and my friends often stop at the Bus Stand Bakery shop for evening refreshment. Most of the time we eat this Masala Toast and Warm Badam Paal/Almond Milk.  I recollected those golden moments while making this recipe, sadly I am not in touch with any of my College friends. Ok, now coming to the recipe, If you have bread(white bread preferred) in hand then it takes only 10 minutes to prepare this masala toast. No fancy ingredients required just basic masala powders  in the kitchen and fresh veggies of your choice but carrot is the main ingredient in this recipe. You can also use cabbage, beets, green peas, green peas also.  I have already shared a similar sandwich recipe, if interested click Here
