For Sandwich
- 6 slices Bread slices (white bread or whole wheat bread) crusts trimmed
- 1 no Carrot (approx. 50g / 1.8 oz) grated
- 1 to 2 tbsp Butter or olive oil (approx. 15 to 30g / 0.5 to 1 oz) softened
- 2 tbsp Tomato ketchup / sauce (approx. 30 ml / 1 fl oz) adjust to taste
- 3 tbsp Homemade green chutney as needed
- 2 to 3 nos Tomatoes (approx. 100g / 3.5 oz) thinly sliced
- 1 no Cucumber (approx. 80g / 2.8 oz) thinly sliced
- 1 tsp Chaat masala powder (approx. 3g) or red chilli powder
For Green Chutney
- 0.5 cup Fresh coriander leaves / cilantro (approx. 25g / 0.9 oz) tightly packed
- 2 tbsp Fresh mint leaves (pudina)
- 2 nos Green chillies adjust to taste
- 0.5 inch Ginger peeled
- 2 cloves Garlic peeled
- 0.5 tsp Chaat masala
- few drops Lemon juice
- 1 pinch Sugar optional, to balance taste
- Salt and water as needed
Add all the ingredients listed under 'For Green Chutney' (fresh coriander leaves, mint leaves, green chillies, ginger, garlic, chaat masala, lemon juice, sugar, and salt) into a small blender jar. Grind to a smooth paste adding very little water. Transfer to a bowl and set aside.
Take 3 bread slices (milk bread, brown bread, or whole wheat bread). Trim the edges/crusts with a sharp knife if preferred. Spread green chutney on the first slice, tomato ketchup on the second slice, and softened butter or olive oil on the third slice.
Spread the grated carrot over the chutney slice, sliced cucumber on the ketchup slice, and sliced tomatoes and onions on the buttered slice. Sprinkle chaat masala powder or red chilli powder over each layer. Stack the slices one over the other to form a layered club sandwich. Cut diagonally into triangles and serve immediately!
- You can toast or grill the sandwich with butter on a tawa if making for toddlers or kids who prefer warm, crispy sandwiches.
- Adjust the spiciness of the green chutney by adding more or fewer green chillies to suit your family’s taste.
- For a cheesy variation, add a layer of grated mozzarella or a processed cheese slice over the vegetables.
- If packing for school or office lunch boxes, place the cucumber and tomato slices between buttered bread to prevent sogginess.
