Masala Tostadas

I have seen masala papad as an appetizer item in most of the Indian restaurants. I make this at home as an evening snack with vegetables and tostadas. Tostadas are crisp flat tortillas. I made 8 of these. The ingredients are for 8 tostadas.

Cook Time - 20 Minutes
Level - Easy
Serves - 4-8

Ingredients

  • 8 Tostadas
  • 1 medium onion finely chopped
  • 1 Green bell pepper finely chopped
  • 1 Carrot finely chopped or shredded
  • 1 Jalapeno seeded and finely chopped (2 if you want it hot)
  • 1 Zucchini finely chopped
  • 1 teaspoon salt (more if you need)
  • 1 teaspoon chat masala
  • 1/2 tablespoon ground black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper powder
  • 1/2 cup shredded cheese (I used mexican style mixed shredded cheese)
  • 2 tablespoons dill leaves finely chopped
  • 2 tablespoons corriander leaves finely chopped
  • 1 cup Tomato ketchup
Directions

Preheat the oven to 450 Degrees. Mix all the vegetables and spices together. Spread each tostadas with tomato ketchup. Alternately, you can also use chilli sauce. Top the tostadas with the mixed vegetables. Bake the tostadas in the oven for 5 - 10 minutes until the cheese melts. Serve hot.
