About Aloo Sandwich

Aloo Sandwich is a popular Indian-style sandwich made with a spiced potato filling and a creamy white sauce. The potatoes, onion and tomato slices are marinated in a mixture of spices and then roasted until crispy, which adds a satisfying crunch to the sandwich. Onions and tomatoes are added to the sandwich for a burst of freshness and flavor.

The creamy white sauce, made from butter, all-purpose flour and milk, adds richness to the sandwich and balances the spice from the potatoes. It helps to hold the sandwich together and enhances its taste with a subtle creaminess, also a low fat alternate to cheese. This recipe is a great way to make use of everyday ingredients and transform them into something special.

Even amma who says no to sandwiches asked for second serving. Now do I need any other reason to make this sandwich again?!

How to make Aloo Sandwich Step by Step

1.Pressure cook potato until soft(for 3-4 whistles), peel off the skin and slice them to 1/4 inch thickness. Then slice onions.

2.Slice tomato and get ready with your veggies. Now in a mixing bowl add the ingredients listed under ‘to marinade’.

3.Mix well and set aside to marinate. Meanwhile prepare the white sauce. Heat butter once it starts to melt add maida and give a quick mix until it resembles sandy texture.

4.Then add milk and keep cooking till it starts to thicken. Now add oregano and keep cooking until the sauce coats the back of a ladle, creamy and thick. Set aside to cool down.

5.Now take your potato slices, dip it in the spice powder marinade and toast it in a dosa tawa till golden brown on both sides. Next coat onion slices with the spices mixture.

6.And toast it till slightly browned. You can add raw tomato itself to your sandwich but I wiped off the remaining spice mixture and toasted it.

7.Now the toasted veggies are also ready. Now spoon a generous mixture of prepared white sauce and spread it in 4 slices of bread. On one side of the bread add the toasted potato, onion and tomato slices.

8.Close the sandwich with the other bread, press it slightly so that it gets sealed. Heat dosa tawa drizzle ghee and add one sandwich at a time and toast it till golden brown. Flip to other side and cook. While toasting just press the bread with a flat ladle to get the toast evenly browned as shown below.

Cut into half and Serve hot! Enjoy the tasty, creamy sandwich!!

Expert Tips

• Spice Level – You can adjust the red chili powder and pepper powder based on your spice preference. For a milder sandwich, reduce the chili powder and skip the pepper.
• Vegetable Variation – You can add extra veggies like capsicum, cucumber, or cabbage for a fresh crunch and added nutrition. Sautéing these before adding to the sandwich will enhance the flavor.
• Roasting – Roast the onions, potatoes and tomatoes before adding them to the sandwich, it gives them an extra flavor and a satisfying crunch. Don’t skip this step.
• Even Browning – When toasting, press lightly with a spatula or a flat bottomed bowl for even browning and a crisp finish.
• Make-Ahead Option – Prepare the white sauce and marinade ahead of time and store them in the fridge. When you’re ready to serve, simply toast the vegetables, assemble and toast the sandwiches and serve hot.
• Cheesy Twist – For a cheesy version, add grated cheese (cheddar or mozzarella) to the white sauce after it thickens. You can also add a cheese slice. It’ll melt into a gooey, delicious filling.

Serving and Storage

Serve Aloo Sandwich immediately after toasting to keep the bread crispy. Pair it with ketchup, chutney, or a side salad for a complete meal.

For storing, you can wrap the sandwich in foil and keep it in an airtight container. It can be kept in the fridge for a few hours, but it’s best eaten fresh to retain the crispiness of the bread.
