Anda Bhurji with Pauruti Toast

Ingredients

• 8 slice Bread Slices (Thick-cut or day-old bread works best)
• 3 piece Large Eggs
• 0.5 cup Milk (Full-fat recommended for richer taste)
• 0.5 cup Fine Rava (Also known as fine semolina)
• 3 tbsp Sugar (Adjust to your preferred sweetness)
• 0.25 tsp Cardamom Powder
• 0.125 tsp Salt (A small pinch)
• 4 tbsp Ghee (For shallow frying, add more if needed)

Instructions

1. 1

   Prepare Batter and Coating

   • In a wide, shallow bowl large enough to fit a slice of bread, whisk the eggs, milk, sugar, cardamom powder, and salt.
   • Continue whisking for 1-2 minutes until the mixture is well combined, slightly frothy, and the sugar has completely dissolved.
   • Spread the fine rava evenly on a separate flat plate.
2. 2

   Coat the Bread Slices

   • Take one slice of bread and quickly dip it into the egg mixture, allowing each side to soak for just 3-5 seconds. Avoid oversoaking, as the bread can fall apart.
   • Immediately lift the soaked bread, let any excess batter drip off, and place it onto the plate with rava.
   • Gently press the bread on both sides to ensure it's evenly coated with a thin layer of semolina. This coating is key to the crispy texture.
3. 3

   Shallow Fry the Toast

   • Heat 1-2 tablespoons of ghee in a non-stick skillet or tawa over medium heat. The ghee should be hot but not smoking.
   • Carefully place 2-3 coated bread slices onto the skillet, ensuring not to overcrowd the pan.
   • Fry for 2-3 minutes on the first side, or until the rava coating is a deep golden brown and crisp.
   • Flip the slices and fry for another 2-3 minutes on the other side until equally golden and the egg is fully cooked.
   • Repeat the process with the remaining bread slices, adding more ghee to the pan as needed for each batch.

   Serve and Enjoy

   • Remove the Pauruti Toast from the pan and place it on a wire rack for a moment to prevent it from getting soggy.
   • Serve immediately while hot and crispy. It's delicious on its own or can be served with a drizzle of honey or a sprinkle of powdered sugar.
