Hey Hetal & Anuja,
Thanks for this yummy vegetarian version of the French Toast!
Loved your griddle also! Looks like electric one! Where did you get it from?
Thanks and Happy Holidays

I’ve tried these before and the bread becomes too soft and rubbery very quickly. Toasting the bread very lightly ( in an oven if you have one) takes of the excess moisture and keeps the french toast crispy for longer.

I got a great recipe for roasted cinnamon nuts, however they have used egg white. What can i use to replace the egg white? Or, do you have a recipe of your own?
Thanks a lot.

Usually Hetal and Anuja reccomend flax seed powder and water to replace eggs
[Reply]
Pinal Reply:
January 5th, 2012 at 7:31 pm
True, but I assume the flax seed if for making baked goods rise or soft like an egg would do. It’s different with the nuts tough because you don’t need them to be soft or to rise. So I don’t think that would be it but I could be wrong.

Hi Pinal,
Sorry for the late reply. Unfortunately, we don’t have an answer for you that we have tried. Maybe you can try an egg replacer available at the store.

Go ahead and use your dosa tawa…I’ve made real french toast on a tawa and it comes out well…so my guess is that this will turn out good too.

Is there a substitute for sooji in this recipe? Thanks
[Reply]
December 25th, 2011 at 12:38 am
Anu,
You cna safely omit the Sooji if you do not have it.
I have done ti so many times like that.
I add very finely chopped onions too in my version and that gives a nice crunch….
though I call it non-fried bread pakoda then
Nonetheless, its a great recipe…

Hi Kumari,
The griddle is electric but we usually don’t make dosa on it as we have a cast iron one for that. This type of griddle is available in most of our department stores here in the US. You may be able to find one online…just search for “electric griddle”. Be sure you get one with the right voltage.

Thank you ladies for wonderful recipes. This eggless toast rock.My eight year old loves it so much.We are vegeterian and this toast recipe is great.Just like google means to search , smtc means to cook. I didn’t know about this upuntil I went to school of my 11 year old to giver her lunch.The cafeteria lady stopped me and asked me ” Ms Desai I loved that toast that Nishka shared with me other day ” I said thank you and I will give you recipe and she said no don’t worry I do SMTC !!! I said what!! She said we all cafeteria ladies know SMTC AND We are big fan of those 2 wonderful ladies.When we don’t know what to cook for Nishka( NIshka is the only vegeterian in her school)we
do SMTC.
SO thanks for being an important part of my daughter’s life – nourishment.

Hii…It looks like a quick and easy recipe.
So I can find all the required ingredients for egg-less french toast in my pantry except the rice flour. I don’t use it much. So is it an essential ingredient? Or it can be skipped or replaced?
Thanks

Hi Kriti,
You can replace it with extra besan. It is a small amount but it really helps the texture.
