Chilli Bread

I have been wanting to try something with bread for quite sometime, other than bread upma or bread omlette. Found this chilli bread to be exciting with the flavors of capsicum and the different sauces that gave a chinese tint to it. Seeing the health quotient, hubby always prefers brown bread, this time it was loaded with ragi and oats too. So a much healthier version of bread. So lets quickly go thru the recipe of chilli bread !!

Notes:

• You may also use white bread or sandwich bread or any wheat bread.

• You may also dry roast the breads without toasting them in butter, but this makes it even more tasty.
