Bombay Sandwich


                                            Bombay Sandwich



             I have tasted this sandwich long back during my childhood days, my mother and I learnt  this recipe from one of her Maharastrian Colleagues. She used to make this for breakfast, she used to sandwich two bread slices with potato bajji and toast it in a tawa. My version is slightly different from hers.

Cooking Time: 10 minutes

Ingredients:

For Potato Bajji:
Boiled potato: 3 nos
Finely chopped onion: 2 nos
Finely chopped green chilli: 2 nos
Oil: 2 tea spoons
Sanuf: 1/2 teaspoon 
Curry leaves: a few numbers
Finely chopped coriander leves: 1 teaspoon
Salt to taste
Turmeric powder: 1/2 teaspoon

For Pudina chutney:
Pudina leaves: 1/2  bunch 
Coriander leaves: 1/4 bunch
Green chilli: 2 nos
Garlic pods: 5 to 7 (Optional)
Salt to taste

Sandwich Assembling:

Sandwich bread: 16 slices
Butter: 2 table spoons (Optional)

Method:
1. Mash the boiled potatoes well and finely chop the onions. green chillies. Keep it aside.
2. Place a pan on the stove over a medium flame and heat it.
3. When becomes hot, add 2 tea spoons of oil, saunf, green chillies and fry it for a minute, then add the onions and saute it well, till the onions become translucent.
4. Now add turmeric powder and mix well, add in the mashed potato and mix well.
5. Add salt as per taste and sprinkle little water and close it with lid. Let it cook for 2 to 3 minutes.
6. Take the lid off and sprinkle curry and coriander leaves and switch off the flame. Keep it aside and let it cool.
7. Now put all the ingredients mentioned for chutney in a mixie and grind it to a fine smooth paste. Keep it ready.
8. Now for sandwich, take a slice of bread and spread some butter over it, apply green chutney and spread some potato bajji and close it with another slice of bread.
9. Toast this sandwich in a sandwich toaster and take it out once it is done.
10. Cut it into triangular shape ans serve it hot.



Note:
1. Adding garlic to the chutney gives a fantastic taste, when toasted.
2. For variations, you can add grated cheese or cheese slices.
