Yield: 4 Slices

Prep. Time: 10 Mins

Toasting Time: 20 to 30 Mins

Ingredients:

• Bread Loaf Slices  (click here) – 4 (1 cm thick)
• For the Herby Garlic Butter:
  • Salted Butter (soft) – 2 tbsp.
  • Garlic (very finely chopped) – 8 small cloves
  • Oregano – ½ tsp. (optional)
• For the Topping:
  • Mozzarella Cheese (grated) – 1 cup
  • Green Chillies (finely chopped) – 4
  • Capsicum (finely chopped) – ½ big
  • Red Chilly Flakes – 1 tsp.
  • Salt – ½ tsp.

Step 1:     Mix all the ingredients for the herby butter and keep aside.

Step 2:     Mix all the ingredients for the topping except the red chilly flakes and keep aside.

Step 3:     Take the bread slices and apply the herby butter to one side of each slice.

Step 4:     Place a pan on heat and toast the bread slices, buttered side down, for a few minutes on medium high heat till crisp (only the buttered side). Then take off the pan.

Step 5:     Keep the bread slices with the toasted side facing up. Spread the topping, evenly, on all of the four slices. Sprinkle the chilly flakes on all of them.

Step 6:     Take a non-stick tawa / griddle and place the topped slices on it. Cover and cook for 8 to 10 minutes on low heat till all the cheese melts and the base is crisp (use a cover, such that it does not touch the cheese topping). If using the oven, bake at 180° C for 6 to 8 minutes.
