Mumbai Masala Toast Sandwich, Veg Masala Toast Sandwich Recipe

They are my favorite till today although I miss them in Pune. So I decided to make them home. I make them almost every fifteen days as we both drool over them. It’s quite simple to make them. Just some mashed potatoes infused in Indian spices, vegetables, green chutney, butter and your Mumbai Masala Toast Sandwich is ready.

Infact you can make these sandwiches more healthy by adding some greens like…. spinach, coriander leaves, corn, green peas, french beans etc in the mashed potatoes. I have added some green peas and french beans to make them more healthier although it’s optional and regular Mumbai Masala Toast Sandwich doesn’t consist of all the veggies I stated above.

My hubby has recovered from the accident. In fact he is out of town for three days for his official work. So I am staying with his friends wifes house who has 2 beautiful, cute and notorious kids. So I am enjoying this change as I love to play with kids because I feel I am also a kid 😉 guess everyone has a kid in his/her heart some hide some show so I like to show!

The weather is getting quite pleasant in Pune so tempted to eat more hot and tasty food and what could be better than these Mumbai Masala Toast Sandwich.
