ROASTING OF SANDWICHES
Roasting Sandwiches can be done in many ways. I shall show you a few of them.
For the roasting sandwiches, you can use an ordinary Dosa pan, Grill pan, or even a Sandwich maker(electric).
Here I am using a Grilled Tawa,(it leaves golden impressions on the Sandwich which looks attractive).
we will be using the following:( while roasting Sandwiches)
1) Semolina batter.
2) filling stuff (tomato, onion, capsicum stuff)
3) Unsalted Butter
4) Wheat Sandwich Bread ( 8-10 slices)
5) Fermented Dosa Batter.
METHOD:
- Take a Grilled Tawa and heat it on a low flame
- Apply Butter on the Tawa.
- Apply a thin layer of the Semolina batter on the bread slices as shown.
- Now put them on the grilled Tawa, (the batter side should go down)
- Now put some filling on the top side.
- cover it again with the semolina batter.
- Let it roast for 1 minute.
- Turn it upside down, and apply some Butter, on top and sides of the Sandwich.
Note: The roasting process should be on low heat with proper Buttering to get a crispier sandwich.
A HEALTHY, QUICK, TASTY, AND STOMACH-FILLING SANDWICH IS READY.
EAT HOT WITH TOMATO KETCHUP OR MINT CHUTNEY.
2) METHOD OF MAKING SANDWICHES USING- DOSA BATTER
- Keep a grilled Tawa on the flame to heat. Smear Butter.
- Take the Dosa batter on a plate, about 1-2 ladle full.
- Dip the Slice of Bread so that the Batter coats on both sides. (flipping it)
- Now put this Slice on the Tawa, after greasing Tawa with Butter.
- Let it roast to golden brown color.
- Flip it and repeat the same procedure.
- Apply some more Butter, while you flip.
- Now after removing the tawa, put the filling, cover it with the other roasted Sandwich, and serve it Hot.
THE SANDWICH WITH A NEW TWIST IS READY TO RELISH.
NOTE:- If you wish, you can boil a big potato, mash it, and add instead of tomato.
For a sour taste, add lime juice or Dry mango powder. (this type of filling will be best for making the sandwich in an electric Sandwich maker, to get a very crispy snack).
This is a very quick and novel idea, for making a yummy sandwich, instead of eating, Bread Butter, or Bread Jam.
