(To serve 2 people)
Whole wheat bread - 4 Slices
Leftover channa gravy(accompaniment for Batura) - 1 Cup
Chopped Green Chillies - 2 nos (Optional)
Chopped Coriander - 2 tbps
Butter - one small cube
Method:
- Grind the channa along with the gravy to a smooth paste. Either use a coffee blender or a hand blender. If the gravy is loose then simmer and reduce it to a fine paste by heating on low flame. Mix in the chopped green chillies and the coriander to the channa paste.
- Take a slice of bread and spread the channa paste generously and cover it with another slice of bread. Repeat this process to make sandwiches.
- If you are using a tawa - then place the sandwich on the hot tawa or girdle and dot with butter. Ensure that both the sides are crisp golden brown and not charred. In case you have a sandwich maker you can make this efficiently where the edges of the bread will get sealed.
- Cut the sandwich diagonally and serve with mint chutney.
- This recipe can be eaten hot or can also be packed for lunch. Instead of channa gravy, you can also use Hummus, a popular middle eastern dish.
