Method
  1. Divide the topping into 10 equal portions. Keep aside.
  2. Cut all the bread slices into approx. 62 mm. (2½ ") diameter roundels with the help of a cookie cutter.
  3. Place 5 bread roundels on a clean, dry surface. Apply ¼ tsp of crushed mango pickle evenly over each bread roundel.
  4. Spread a portion of the topping over each roundel and press it lightly.
  5. Heat a non-stick tava (griddle) and grease it with butter.
  6. Place all the 5 open toasts on the tava (griddle) with the open side facing downwards and cook on a medium flame, using a little butter, till they turn golden brown in colour from both the sides.
  7. Repeat steps 3 to 6 to make 5 more toasts in one more batch.
  8. Serve immediately garnished with little onions and chaat masala over each open toast.

Handy tip:

  1. The outer hard covering of the mango seed which is usually the part of the pickle should be discarded and not blended.
