When we talk about Mumbai street food, then Bombay Sandwich is one such dish that you would mostly find in roadside food stalls after Pani Puri, Wada Pao & Pao Bhaji on the streets of Mumbai. Bombay sandwich is so easy to assemble that it also becomes a convenient snack and breakfast option at home.
You just need few vegetables like onion, tomato, cucumber, capsicum, boiled potatoes that are staple and 1-2 khatti meethi chutneys like Dhaniya pudina chutney and Sonth chutney. Adding Cheese is totally Optional and yes, this is also a Healthy Sandwich if you ignore the amount of Butter that goes into grilling. So basically, if you’re counting on calories, then we would suggest you to avoid ‘Grilling’ your sandwiches and use multigrain or whole wheat bread for healthy snacking.
We have ‘Grilled’ our sandwich on an Electric Sandwich Maker, but you can also grill on your regular ‘Tawa’ or pan that you use to make rotis and paranthas. Anyhow, it doesn’t makes any difference on taste. What matters most is how much or what quantity of ‘Chutney’ you have put in your sandwich as ‘Tasteful Chutnetys’ are key to delicious Bombay sandwiches!
