Ingredients
Main ingredients
- 4 to 6 lices bread - whole wheat bread or white bread or brown bread
- ½ to ¾ cup chana masala or chole masala
- 1 onion - small sized, sliced thinly
- 1 tomato - small to medium, sliced thinly
- 1 green bell pepper - small to medium (capsicum or shimla mirch) - sliced thinly
- 1 teaspoon chaat masala powder or sandwich masala
- 1 teaspoon roasted cumin powder
- black salt or rock salt (edible and food grade), as required
- butter (softened) or olive oil for spreading on the bread slices
- cheddar or mozzarella cheese, thinly sliced or grated as required - optional
Accompaniments
- tomato ketchup
- green chutney - optional
- tamarind chutney - optional
Instructions
- Trim the edges of the bread if you prefer.
- Spread the butter or brush the olive oil lightly on all the bread slices.
- Add 1 or 2 tablespoons of the chana masala and spread it evenly on the bread.Ensure that the chana masala or chole masala is dry or semi-dry and does not have any curry or gravy consistency as this will make the bread soggy.
- Top with 2 to 3 thin slices each of onion, tomato and capsicum.
- Sprinkle a few pinches of chaat masala, roasted cumin powder and black salt.
- If you want you can top with some grated cheese.
- Cover with another slice of bread.
- Toast the chana sandwich in a sandwich maker or grill till golden and crisp.
- Spread some olive oil or butter on top of the chole sandwiches if required.
- Serve the Chana Sandwich hot with green chutney or sweet tamarind chutney or tomato ketchup.
Notes
- Ensure that the chana masala does not have any liquid curry consistency. It should be dry or semi-dry. Any liquids or gravy in the chana masala will make the bread moist and soggy.
- Cheese can be skipped.
- To make a plant based version, use olive oil and omit the cheese.
