Bread Bajji - A tasty Fritter for snack time

Bajji is a famous south Indian snack made with besan batter and veggies like potato, onion, eggplant. I read somewhere about the bread bajji and thought of trying it. Just replaced veggies with bread. Its an instant snack which takes no time to prepare. If you have leftover breads, then this is a good try. I usually struggle to finish off the bread before it expires. This recipe turn these bread to a toothsome evening snack. Bread bajji and a cuppa coffee or tea makes your taste buds more happy. 

Ingredients:

Bread - 4 pieces (i used Wheat bread)
Besan flour/ Kadalai mavu - 1 cup
Rice flour / Arisi mavu - 1/4 cup
Red chilli powder - 2 tsp 
Hing/ Asafoetida - 1/2 tsp
Baking soda - a pinch (optional)
Salt
Oil to fry

Method:

Cut the all four corner part of the bread. Cut it into to halves lengthwise. 
Mix besan flour, rice flour, red chilli powder, hing, baking soda and salt.
Add water little by little and make a semi solid batter. It should not be watery or too thick.
Heat oil in a wok/ kadai.
Dip the bread piece into the batter and place it in the hot oil.
Two at a time works better. 
Fry both sides till its crisp.
Remove from oil and place it in a paper towel. 
Serve hot with tomato sauce or green chutney.
