Instructions
Making stuffing
- Peel and mash 1 large boiled potato or 2 medium potatoes. You can steam or boil or pressure cook the potatoes in a pan, or a stovetop pressure cooker or instant pot. Add water as required while boiling or steaming the potatoes.
- Take the mashed potatoes in a mixing bowl. Add the finely chopped bell pepper and onions to the mashed potatoes.
- Add chaat masala, red chilli powder and salt as per taste
- Mix very well. Check the taste and add more chaat masala, red chilli powder or salt if required.
- Keep the potato stuffing aside.
Assembling
- Slice the loaf in 0.5 inches width. Butter them evenly.
- Now place the mixture and spread it all over the slices. Cover with the second slice.
Making tawa sandwich
- Heat a thick bottomed tawa or a griddle and spread some butter on it. Keep heat from low to medium, depending on the heaviness and thickness of the tawa or griddle.
- Place 1 to 2 prepared sandwiches on the tawa or griddle.
- Now place a lid on the sandwiches. On top of the lid, place a weight.
- You can also only place a heavy lid. The plate I used is not heavy, so I kept a heavy mortar on it.
- Toast for a few minutes and remove the weight and lid or plate.
- Spread some butter on the top. You do have to check with a spatula, to see how much they bottom has got browned. When the base becomes golden, then flip carefully using a spatula.
- Now again place the lid and a weight on it. Again toast for a few minutes till the bottom is golden and crisp.
- Once done, then remove griddle sandwich in a plate. Using the same technique, grill or toast the remaining prepared sandwiches on the griddle or tawa.
- Serve Tawa Sandwich hot with tomato ketchup or mint-coriander chutney.
Notes
- You can use any colored capsicum or red bell pepper or skip if you want.
- Spices can be added more or less as per your preferences.
- Some grated cheese or paneer also can be added in the stuffing.
- You can use any colored capsicum or red bell pepper or skip if you want.
- Use a thick bottomed heavy tawa or griddle. Do not use a thin light weight tawa as the sandwiches may get burnt fast.
- Regulate the heat as needed, depending on the size and heaviness of the griddle or tawa. It can range from low to medium heat.
- You could also grill these sandwiches in a frying pan or a flat skillet instead of using the griddle.
- Optionally together with the butter, use coriander chutney or mint-cilantro chutney or mayonnaise as a spread on the sandwiches.
