bombay sandwich recipe | mumbai sandwich | bombay grilled sandwich recipe with detailed photo and video recipe. an extremely popular street style sandwich recipe made with layers of sandwich slices, vegetable slices and a unique sandwich masala spice mix. it is one of the popular street food sandwich recipes from mumbai known for its spice mix and choice of vegetables. it is generally served as an evening snack or a lite dinner but not limited to and can be served for morning breakfast too.
in this post, i have shown 2 ways of making a popular mumbai sandwich recipes. the first one is a no-cook or no grill sandwich made with different layers of sandwich bread. you may call it mumbai club sandwich with different types of the vegetable slice in it. particularly the use of boiled potatoes and beetroots makes it unique for this sandwich recipe. the other variation is the grilled version of the same sandwich with the same set of layering and vegetables in it. but there is slight variation by adding a cheese slice in each sandwich layer. this makes it special from the former sandwich variant. some even add grated cheese on top of grill sandwich which i have skipped in this recipe. if you prefer to, you may add cheddar cheese grate on top of the hot grill sandwich which would eventually melt to have a wonderful sandwich experience.
furthermore, i would add some more tips, suggestions and variation to the layered street food bombay sandwich recipe. firstly, do not attempt this recipe other than sandwich bread or white bread slices. it does not taste great when made with wheat bread, multi-grain bread as the veggies, masala does not gel it together. secondly, for the first variant, i have sliced the side of the bread before stacking up the veggies. this would make it near and pretties, but not a mandatory step. lastly, the veggies added in this recipe is the basic and a mandatory set of vegetables for the mumbai sandwich recipe. having said that, you may experiment further and add more veggies to it. for instance, you may use carrot, zucchini, lettuce and even fried eggplant.
