  • 1 medium onion (finely chopped)
  • 1 small capsicum (finely chopped, optional)
  • 1-2 green chillies (finely chopped)
  • ½ inch ginger (grated)
  • 2 tbsp coriander leaves (chopped)
  • ½ tsp red chilli powder
  • ½ tsp garam masala
  • ½ tsp chaat masala (optional)
  • Salt to taste
  • 4-6 bread slices (brown, multigrain, or white)
