Kerala Egg Roast is a traditional side dish that is served with rice or rice pancakes called appam. Growing up this traditional egg roast and appam was a regular breakfast menu at my home. This Kerala Egg Roast Toast is a fusion breakfast that is inspired by the traditional egg roast. The tangy & spicy roasted onions and tomato gravy is paired with cilantro coconut chutney and is generously slathered on a bread slice that is lightly toasted with coconut oil, and topped with boiled eggs. Each bite into this toast gives the perfect crunch and explosion of flavors in your mouth.
