Oat Bran Moong Sprout Masala Bread

Serves: 3-4

_____________________________________________________ 

8-10 slices Whole Wheat Bread or Multi grain bread

½ cup Moong sprouts

½ cup Oat Bran

5-6 garlic cloves

4-5 green chillies

½ “piece ginger

4-5 sprigs few coriander leaves

1 tsp amchur (dry Mango) powder

Salt as per taste

Oil for shallow frying  

Grind the Oat Bran in the mixer and keep it aside.

Now grind together the Moong sprouts, garlic, chillies, ginger, coriander to a fine smooth paste using water if required.

Mix together the Moong mixture and the Oat bran and keep aside for 10- 15 minutes.

Add salt and amchur powder and mix nicely.

Add little water if required to make a thick batter.

Cut the bread slices diagonally into two pieces.

Heat a tava/skillet.Sprinkle little oil.

Coat one side of each bread piece with the batter using a spoon or butter knife.

Keep them on the tava-coated side down.

Now apply the batter on top of each piece.

Fry nicely on both sides till golden brown using minimum oil.

Alternatively you can grill the Bread pieces in the oven.

Serve hot with Ketchup or Chutney or as it is. 

Note: I have used Oat Bran, obviously since it is healthier. You can also use Besan/Chick Pea flour
