Bombay Veg Sandwich - A quick, easy and delicious Snack!

Those who are Mumbaikars and those who visit us, will definitely be nostalgic about the variety of STREET FOOD available here....Various plaves have their special Khau Galis..with atleast one such Chaat | Street Food being the Rock Star that pulls crowds to that place.

Of the lot, one humble, filling, tasty, delicious, easy to make element is my favourite - Bombay Veg Sandwich! This is a great Tea-Time Snack | Tiffin | Picnic | Get together Menu Option!A jhatpat healthy filler, with vegetables, a delectable Coriander Mint Chutney, homemade butter, a dash of rock salt and chat masala...and an added dunk in Tomato Ketchup...you are left content!

Sometimes Appa will ask if we may have Bread! Appa loves bread as a plain veggie sandwich, plain toast...or his Bread Dosa, Masala Bread Dosa and Bread Upama! We tend to have bakery items just once a month! Amma is yet to try her hand at Baking! I am sure she would do wonders even in this style of cooking! Till then, our breads are outsourced! I generally try to get multi-grain, whole wheat Organic Breads | Pavs | Burgers and they are either from FoodSpot a local awesome shop or Moshes Breads!

1 Cucumber, thinly sliced

1 Potato, boiled and thinly sliced

On a clean surface place three of these slices, with the buttered-chutney side facing you.
Place few slices of potato and cucumber. Drizzle little salt and chat masala.
Layer few tomato slices and onion slices next. drizzle some more salt and chat masala.
Cover these three slices with the other three bread slices, with the buttered-chutney side facing inward.
With a knife cut them to 4 squares each..so in all 12 squares.
In a serving plate...arrange these squares to form a 3X3 grid. Garnish them with a dot of Tomato Ketchup | Coriander Mint Chutney.
