Notes
- Texture – Texture is very important as the chana masala can make the sandwich soggy. Ensure the masala is dry. Excessive moisture can mess up the sandwich.
- Mash a little – You can smash a few of the chickpeas while sautéing. This helps in bringing the filing together and prevents them from falling out.
- Spice Level – You can spice it up as per your requirement. It also depends on the bread you are using. For wheat or multigrain style of bread, bold flavors work well.
- Butter it up – Butter is another important ingredient and can use them generously. Apply butter on the outer side of the bread for that crisp golden finish.
- Add-ons – You can add fresh elements to the sandwich like cucumber, lettuce, and onions.
- A layer of cheese – You can add a slice of cheese or grated cheese to the sandwich before grilling them. It adds flavors to the sandwich and stands as a barrier against moisture.
- Grill it up – You can easily grill the sandwiches, or simply tawa fry them with a dollop of butter. Easy toasting is important.
