These days, sandwich is a very common ANYTIME food item across the world. This below recipe is a perfect Indian version of a sandwich which is generally seen as a street food in India.
In this recipe, we use the Green Chutney as the sandwich spread and potato filling as the stuffing.
Just try this Spicy version of a sandwich with the infusion of Indian Masala. I make these sandwiches not only for snack but also for my kids lunch boxes. They just love them just with the tomato sauce.
The same recipe can be done over a tawa/pan on stove top if you do not have a sandwich maker. I have given the pictures for both the methods.

Possible alterations for the recipe, ‘Indian Masala Sandwich / Bombay Masala Toast Sandwich’:
To Replace Potato: The best option to replace potato, is sweet potato. Tastes excellent too.
To Replace Spice: If you think red chilli powder would be spicier for kids, just eliminate or else replace with freshly ground black pepper.
Plant Based Options: I have used Plant Based butter & Plant Based cheese in this recipe.
WFPB options: To make the recipe completely Whole Food Plant Based, just eliminate the butter & cheese completely. The Green Chutney spread, is more than sufficient for giving a great taste.
Bombay Masala Toast Sandwich: This same recipe is actually called as ‘Bombay Masala Toast Sandwich’. Bombay / Mumbai is an Indian city where this sandwich has its roots.
Once you cut the sandwich diagonally, sprinkle a tablespoon of Indian Sev over the stuffing which sticks very easily. This makes the sandwich more crunchy.

Tips:
- If you are a Vegan, you will have to use a vegan one or just eliminate it (not suitable though).
- I used whole wheat bread too, but any bread perfectly suits.
- Tomato sauce works as a perfect dip for these spicy sandwiches.
- Don’t skip the green chutney, which is a must .
- Adjust the salt & spice as per your taste.
- Storage: Make the stuffing well before, store it in the fridge and use it whenever needed.
- Or else make the sandwiches, wrap them in cling film and store for 1 day in fridge. Reheat them before serving.
Result:
- The taste of this, Indian masala sandwich, is blasting with flavours from the green chutney & masala powders.
- My kids always vote for these sandwiches, whenever I ask them for which sandwich filling they would like to have.
- Even when I pack them in my kids lunch boxes, they always get the boxes empty.
