In a pan or kadai heat little oil and add the ingredients for seasoning that includes the mustard, cumin seeds, whole dry red chilies, urad dal and fresh curry leaves. After they are sautéed well add the chopped onion, green chilies and little ginger garlic paste and fry well. When the onion becomes translucent add the bread pieces coated with curd in the kadai or pan.

After about a minute when one side of the bread pieces are done or turns a bit brown turn them over to the other side and fry. Lastly sprinkle lime juice over and mix. Garnish with freshly chopped coriander leaves.
