Punjabi-French toast

This is a recipe that I would like to dedicate to a school friend of mine, who would share the wonderful french toast his mom would prepare for his lunch, with his (rather ungrateful!) friends.

Following are the ingredients:

1 ripe tomato (riper the better)
1 cup milk (boiled and then cooled to room temperature)
1 egg
1 clove garlic
1/8 tb spoon salt
1/8 tb spoon turmeric
7 pepper corns (whole)
1/2 green chilli
Milk bread (small packet)

Preparation:
While preparing the batter, toast the bread lightly on a pan.
1. knead the ripe tomato gently until the pulp is loosened within. Then cut it open and pour out the pulp into a bowl. Remove the skin and other non-pulp portions.
2. chop the garlic and green chilli into fine pieces and add to the bowl
3. break the egg into the bowl
4. Add the turmeric, salt and milk into the bowl
5. Stir well
6. Dip the toasted bread into the batter and lay gently onto the pan (low-medium fire/150 deg C)
7. When one side is well-done turn over to toast the other side.
