Ingredients

4 slices whole wheat bread
1 1/4 cups curds (dahi)
1 green chillies finely chopped
1/2 ginger (adrak)
red chilli powder as required
coriander (dhania) few sprigs
salt to taste

For Vaghar/tadka
1/4 tsp mustard seeds ( rai / sarson)
1/4 tsp cumin seeds (jeera)
1/4 tsp urad dal (split black lentils)
a pinch asafoetida (hing)
4 curry leaves (kadi patta)
1 tsp oil

Method

Cut the bread into desired shapes with help of a cookie cutter.
Alternatively, just remove the edges of the bread and keep aside.
Heat a flat pan on medium heat, apply few drops of oil.
Arrange the bread slices on hot pan and drizzle few drops of oil.
Season the bread with salt and red chilli powder.
Toast them on both sides till the bread turns golden brown in color.
Peel and roughly chop ginger.
Remove stems, wash and roughly chop green chilli.
Coarsely grind ginger and green chillies with pinch of salt.
Wash and finely chop cilantro.
In a wide vessel, whisk together yogurt, ginger green chilli paste, turmeric powder and salt.
Heat oil in a pan, add all tadka ingredients in order.
When mustard seeds almost stop spluttering, remove from heat and pour into above yogurt bowl once it cools down a little.
Dip each toasted bread slice into the yogurt mixture and remove onto a serving plate.
Repeat the same with remaining bread slices.
Drizzle any leftover yogurt mixture over the bread slices.
Serve bread in tempered yogurt immediately.
Handy tip: if the yogurt is too thin, bread becomes quite soggy, so stir in some thick yogurt to balance.
