Heat 1 teaspoon of oil in a tawa or a frying pan.  Dip the bread slice into the batter with your hands and coat the slice evenly with the batter.  Do not keep the slice in the batter for too long, as the slice tends to break otherwise.

NOTES/TIPS

Ensure that the batter is of medium consistency.  If it is too thin, the slices will not get coated properly.

Use non-stick tawa for best results.

You can also add pepper powder instead of red chilli powder for a more spicy flavour.
