Follow each step to make the recipe successfully.

  1. Prepare the vegetable mixture

    Take a bowl and add 1 medium-sized chopped onion, 1 small-sized chopped capsicum, 1 chopped green chili, and 5 chopped ladyfingers (okra).

  2. Add spices and semolina

    Add half tablespoon of red chili flakes and half tablespoon of cumin seeds to the vegetables. Mix well. Then, add 1 cup of semolina (rava/sooji) to the mixture and mix again.

  3. Form the batter

    Gradually add 1 cup of lukewarm water while continuously mixing the ingredients until a thick batter forms. Add salt to taste, half tablespoon of coriander seeds, and some fresh chopped coriander. Mix all ingredients thoroughly until well combined.

  4. Rest the batter

    Cover the bowl and let the batter rest for .

  5. Prepare the bread slices

    Take 5 bread slices and cut them into any desired shape, for example, in half lengthwise.

  6. Adjust batter consistency

  7. Coat and cook the bread

    Dip each bread slice into the semolina batter, ensuring it's well coated on one side. Heat a medium-hot pan with a little oil. Place the coated bread slices, coated side down, in the pan. Cook for on medium-high flame until light brown, then flip and cook the other side until light brown and crispy.

  8. Serve

    Once both sides are light brown and cooked, remove the semolina bread from the pan. Serve hot with any sauce, such as tomato ketchup.
