Vegetable Sandwich

This is a healthy Indian sandwich toasted with fresh vegetables and green chutney. 

I have started making these sandwiches quite often for evening snacks. My dad used to make these sandwiches when there was leftover mint or coriander chutney which my my mom made it for idly or dosa.

 This sandwich is a popular street food in Mumbai. It is layered with different kinds of vegetables like cucumber, tomatoes, onions, bell pepper, carrots and also paneer. Sometimes even boiled vegetables like potatoes are also stuffed. 


Ingredients

8 Slices of Bread (brown / white)
Green chutney
1 Cucumber, thinly sliced
2 Tomatoes, thinly sliced
1 Onion, thinly sliced
Ghee / Olive oil / Butter

Method

  • Spread little ghee/ oil or butter on every slice of bread
  • Spread a tsp of green chutney evenly on first 4 slices of bread

  • Layer cumber, tomato and onions on first 4 slices of bread and top it with remaining 4 slices of bread

  • Toast it evenly on both sides
  • Serve it with ketchup or mint| sweet chutney
