I learnt how to make this sandwich from a dear sister in law while I was still in college. However, it wasn't till my kids were of school going age that this recipe really came into it's own. It became a hot favourite for lunch boxes, birthday parties and evening snacks. After the kids grew up and left home I hardly ever made this sandwich. Recently I made it just so that I could post the recipe on the blog and enjoyed it all over again. I am definitely not going to wait so long to make it next time. I am hoping my young friends and nieces might also like the recipe and make it for their kids.
All it takes to make this rainbow sandwich is a few slices of bread, tomato sauce, green chutney, besan and loads of love. The broad smiles of appreciation will be well worth the effort! Get going!
Ingredients:
4 slices of bread
Few tbsps of green chutney
Few tbsps of tomato sauce
4-5 tbsps gram flour ( besan)
Salt to taste
1/4 tsp red chilli powder
Oil to fry
Method: Make a thick paste of besan adding few tbsps of water. Add red chilli powder and salt to taste.
Spread tomato sauce liberally on one slice of bread.
Cover with another slice on top. Spread green chutney on this.
Repeat with another slice on top. Spread tomato sauce on this.
Cover with another slice.
Heat oil in a heavy bottom pan/ karahi. Apply besan paste on all sides of the sandwich. Lift it gently and place in the hot oil. Fry the sandwich, turning it from time to time, to let all sides get evenly browned.
Take out and keep on an absorbent paper. Let it cool down a little. Cut slices and serve.
