VEGGIE ON HORSEBACK

Ingredients-

Bread slices
Cheese, grated(processed or cheddar)
Tomato ketchup

Method-

* Toast the bread slices on both sides till very crisp.
* Top with a small mountain of grated cheese.
* Top with a small dollop of ketchup.
* Garnish with a sprig of coriander.

NOTE- U can also use spicy chilli sauce instead of ketchup. And originally in the snack, made by my mom when i was small , the bread was deep fried and this would make the bread extremely crisp. But toasting hte bread makes it a little more healthier. And stops the guilt pang. But miss mom when i have this.
