The Method

1
**Prepare the Mango Salsa:** In a bowl, combine diced mango, red onion, jalapeno, lime juice, cilantro, and salt. Mix well and set aside to allow the flavors to meld.
2
**Prepare the Masala French Toast Batter:** In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, chopped onion, chopped green chili, chopped cilantro, ginger-garlic paste, turmeric powder, garam masala, salt, and pepper until well combined.
3
**Soak the Bread:** Heat a large skillet or griddle over medium heat. Add oil or ghee.
4
Dip each slice of bread into the masala egg mixture, ensuring both sides are well coated. Don't soak the bread for too long, or it will become soggy.
5
**Cook the French Toast:** Place the soaked bread slices on the hot skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Adjust heat as needed to prevent burning.
6
**Serve:** Serve the Masala French Toast immediately, topped with the prepared Mango Salsa.

Chef's Tips

Adjust the amount of green chili to your preferred spice level.

For a richer flavor, use ghee instead of oil for cooking.

You can add a pinch of red chili powder to the batter for extra heat.

If you don't have ginger-garlic paste, you can use grated ginger and minced garlic.

For a sweeter salsa, add a touch of honey or maple syrup.
