All my childhood memories are strongly entrenched with eating these delicious Pinwheel Sandwiches.
I always praise my mom’s cooking, not only because of cooking the Indian staple diet of dal, rice, sabzi, and roti but also introduced us to all types of homemade international food – vegetables in white sauce, pizza, cakes, chowmein, chop suey, and many other such delights.
These sandwiches though not international cuisine were a revolutionary take on sandwiches in those days and even today.
I make it quite often especially for kids’ parties at my place and everyone loves them.

This a sandwich that my mom used to make while we were kids and I loved it. I still love it very much and got my mother to make it again for me while I was visiting her. Here is my favorite sandwich made by Mom and enjoyed by me.
I bet no one can eat just one.
This tastes so good, I can’t describe it. Even my son lapped it up happily which is quite an achievement as he is as fussy an eater as a kid can be. I can eat slices of it without keeping a tab.
Pinwheel Sandwich
Ingredients
- 1 loaf sandwich bread sliced lenghtwise (horizontal)
- ¼ cup tomato ketchup sauce
- ¼ cup coriander mint chutney
- ¼ cup salted butter softened
Instructions
- Wet cheesecloth or fine muslin. Spread on a tabletop or work surface.
- Take a rolling pin & lightly roll 3 slices of bread separately, as to slightly flatten the bread slice without breaking it.
- Now spread butter on one slice, chutney on second & sauce on third slice.
- Place all slices on top of each other with butter slice in middle.
- Now take one end (smaller edge) of the bread sandwich & start rolling it towards the other end. Roll firmly & evenly.
- Once rolled, roll them in aluminium foil or cling film tightly. I had run out of foil/ film so I used plain paper.
- Twist the edges of the foil/ film like a toffee. Now refrigerate for 1/2-1 hr or even overnight.
- Remove from refrigerator, slice & serve cold with tea or coffee or in kid’s tiffin. :)
