Rava Toast / Rock Toast

I first saw this recipe on TV many years ago and they called it rock toast. I am not crazy about upma, but I love bread so this seemed like a good combination. Its a simple recipe but is a hit with kids and adults alike. We had it for snacks when we were younger and now its brunch with some hot tea or coffee.

Ingredients:

1 cup rava / sooji (cream of wheat)
1/4 cup onions diced
1/4 cup tomatoes diced
1/4 cup green peppers diced
1/4 cup red or orange peppers diced
1 tablespoon chopped coriander
3-4 tablespoons yogurt
1/2 teaspoon red chili powder
6 slices bread (any type is fine)
Oil
Salt
Mix the rava, vegetables, yogurt, chili powder and salt. Add water to make a thick batter. Taste and adjust the salt and spice. Spread on one side of the bread. In a non stick flat pan or griddle, put a few drops of oil. Put the bread, rava side down, on the pan. Cook on medium heat. Press down slightly with a spatula to cook the rava evenly. If the rava side slides easily when the pan is shaken, it is cooked. When cooked, flip the bread and crisp the other side. You do not need to put oil on this side. Remove from pan and serve hot with green coriander chutney or ketchup. Enjoy with a hot cup of tea or coffee!

I am sending this to Divya's Sunday Snacks: Healthy Snacks Event and Suma's Jihva: Breakfasts, an event started by Indira. Also to Bhagyashri's Cooking for Kids - Filling Breakfasts, an event started by Sharmi of Neivedyam.
