Veg Masala Toast Sandwich Recipe

This vegetarian masala toast sandwich hails from the busy streets of Bombay – that’s what the city was called in this sandwich and it’s own zeniths. Locally known as the Bombay Masala Toast, the sandwich consists of a generously spiced potato mix and tangy chutneys stacked between bread slices toasted to perfection. To jazz up the taste (and Indian) quotient, the sandwich is topped with a handful of sev as well. Drooling yet?
