i have always been a huge fan of toast recipes as it is simple and easy to prepare yet effective for its purpose. i prefer some lite topping on my bread toast, but do not bother having some filling topping too. particularly with paneer based topping (which makes it a filling topping), i do not have any issue for the simple fact it is paneer. i personally make it for my morning breakfast as it helps to fill your tummy and also full of flavour. but you can make for any meal and more importantly experiment with stuffing to add more veggies and spices. you may also use the same stuffing to prepare a sandwich out of it. if you are preparing a sandwich you may add slices of other veggies to make it more tasty and healthy.
furthermore, i would like to add some more tips, suggestions and variations to the spicy chilli paneer toast sandwich recipe. firstly, i heavily recommend using a white sandwich or toast bread for any toast recipe. the crispiness and the flavour is not something you would be getting with other types of bread. secondly, i have used a frying pan to toast the bread and not a toaster. you may use the traditional toaster or even a toast sandwich press for the same purpose. lastly, due to the moisture in the paneer, the toast may turn soggy once it is applied and rested for 5-10 minutes. hence i would recommend to serve it immediately or prepare it whenever you need it. it hardly takes few minutes to prepare the toast if your stuffing is ready.
