Ingredients

Bread - 4 slices of brown bread. you can use bread of your choice.

Apple - 1/2 - thinly sliced

Strawberry - 2 - thinly sliced

Pineapple - one slice (cut the pineapple horizontally) thinly sliced

Dates - 2 nos Finely chopped

Almonds - 3 nos Finely chopped

Cashew - 3 nos Finely chopped.

Butter - 2 table spoon

Ghee - 2 table spoon

Jam - flavour of your choice. I used blackcurrant flavoured jam

you can replace strawberry with thinly sliced banana and add any dry fruit of your choice like raisins/pistachio/walnuts 

Method

• Chop the fruits and nuts as shown in the picture below.

• Over a slice of bread spread 1 table spoon of butter and arrange the fruits over the butter spread.
  
• Now spread Jam on another slice of bread.
  
• Carefully place the bread applied with Jam over the fruit filled slice of bread. Spread 1/2 table spoon of ghee on the top layer.
  
• Heat the tawa. To check just sprinkle water on tawa and it should sizzle, be careful if it causes a lot of steam (which means tawa is over heated)
• Now place the ghee applied side on the hot tawa and press down the bread with a wooden spatula. Leave it for 2 mins.
• Apply 1/2 table spoon of ghee on other side.
• Now turn over the bread slice carefully as the fillings might spill.
  
• Press down nicely with wooden spatula and allow it to get toast for 2 min.
  
• Remove bread from tawa and serve hot. The crispy bread with juicy fruits filling will be the  nicest combination ever.
