Ingredients

5 Nos. Egg
20-30 Slices Bread
2 Cups Coconut milk
1 Cup Sugar
10 Nos. Cashew nuts
10 Nos. Raisins
1 Tsp Black Sesame seeds
2+1 Tbsp Ghee
1 Tsp Cardamom powder

Instructions

Beat the eggs and pour it into the coconut milk.
Add sugar, cardamom powder and mix it well
Heat 2 tbsp of ghee in a bottomed thick vessel and roast cashew nuts and raisins.
Pour the previously prepared coconut milk mixture and add black sesame seeds. Let's starts cooking in low to medium flame. When it starts to boil and thicken, remove it from the flame.
Grease a non stick pan with 1 tbsp ghee.
Keep bread slices as the first layer.
Using a spoon spread the egg mixture on top of the bread layer.
Again layer the bread slices and spread egg mixture. Continue with all the rest of the bread slices and egg mixture. Pour the remaining coconut milk egg mixture on top of bread(a generous amount) so that it drains on all the gaps on sides and form a thin layer on top. This is important to keep the Chatti Pathiri moist. Now cover the top and cook it in low flame for 10-15 minutes.
All you have to do is to place it at a very low flame and flip it carefully to cook on the other side. The flipping becomes a bit easy when the lowest layer of bread is a little hard. When both the sides have cooked well, it is easy to slide it out of the pan into the serving plate. Flip it and cook for another 5-6 minutes and remove it from the flame.
Tasty sweet bread chattipathiri is ready now.
