Equipment

Ingredients
  

For the cheese mixture:

  • cup Mozzarella Cheese shredded
  • 1 medium Tomato chopped
  • 1 medium Onion chopped
  • 2 Green Chilies chopped
  • ½ tsp Oregano
  • ½ tsp Red Chili Flakes
  • Black Pepper Power a pinch
  • ¼ tsp Salt

For Chilli Cheese Toast:

  • 4 slices Whole Wheat Bread
  • 3 tbsp Butter melted
  • Chili cheese mixture

Instructions
 

  • In a glass bowl, add chopped onions, tomatoes, green chilies, shredded mozzarella, oregano, red chili flakes, salt, and pepper.
  • Take a slice of bread, apply butter, and spread the chili cheese mixture evenly. Make sure to keep most of the batter in the center as the cheese may fall from the sides after melting.
  • Preheat the pan for 30 seconds on medium flame, then lower it.
  • Place the bread in the pan, and toast it for 5-7 minutes on low heat till the cheese has melted.
  • Finally, sprinkle some oregano and red chili flakes as the finishing touch.
  • Your chilli cheese toast is ready to be served hot.

Notes

  • Add more veggies: I wanted to keep this recipe super simple with minimal ingredients but to add more texture and make it into a wholesome treat, try adding in sweet corn, and bell peppers.
  • Apply some butter at the bottom: If by mistake the pan gets too hot, the bread might get stuck and possibly burn from below. Spread some butter on the bottom of the bread, or drizzle half a teaspoon on the pan to avoid burning.
  • Cook the bread beforehand: Toast the bread in advance with butter before adding the mixture. This way when you again place the bread in the pan, it'll maintain its shape and will need less cooking time, thus the bread may not succumb to burning.
 
How to store:
I would suggest not storing this toast and eating it fresh to keep its flavor and crispy texture intact.
Storing it will make the bread soggy and alter its flavor profile.
