Mumbai Sandwich or Bombay Sandwich is a popular Indian snack. A simple white bread is made into a spicy and tasty snack with green chutney, potato and other vegetables pieces as filling. It is ideal to pack in the lunch box.
Mumbai is famous for its street food. Mumbai Sandwich is one such kind of snack which sells like hot cakes. People grab a sandwich and eat on the go or for a mid-day break.
Children need a variety of snacks especially in the evenings when they are back home. Assembling the sandwich takes a few minutes if you have green chutney and boiled potato. You can either grill it or serve it just like that. Here is a post which I had written couple of years back, do check it. It consists of no cook sandwich ideas.
The good thing about serving bread is we can choose the variety we need. One can opt for multi-grain or any of their choice. Eating fried snacks is considerably reduced as this is filling. Moreover, it is easy to serve for mothers too.
Green chutney can be made in numerous ways. Here I suggest you to add some fried gram along with coriander and mint leaves. It gives a good taste and consistency. This is just one kind but you are free to spread any kind of green chutney.
Mumbai Sandwich Recipe:
Ingredients:
- 8 slices of bread
- 2 tablespoon green chutney
- 1 onion
- 1 boiled potato
- 1 tomato
- 1 cucumber
- 1 capsicum
- pepper powder
- chaat masala
Method:
- Boil the potato. Peel and cut into cubes.
- Cut the cucumber and tomato into circles
- Make thin slices of onion and capsicum.
- Take two slices of bread, smear green chutney over them.
- Put a few slices of vegetable.
- Sprinkle a little pepper powder and chaat masala.
- Put the other slice and put in the toaster.
- Alternatively, you can toast it on the skillet with a little ghee until golden in colour.
Take a tip:
- Cut into half and serve it plain without grilling, But I prefer to grill it.
- Keep the green chutney of thick consistency. If you make it thin, the sandwich will become soggy.
- Boiled beetroot pieces can be used.
