Enjoy trying more snacks recipes like Tandoori Paneer Tikka, Corn Rolls Recipe and Chili Cheese Toast.

There are some family recipes and then there are some. This is one of the special ones, coz it was first made by my dad. So apart from having exceptional memories attached to it, it tastes too good.

It is simple to execute and taste great.

Wrapping the sandwiches in the wet muslin cloth is a must for those fresh, soft taste. They also store well for traveling in muslin.

This sandwich is a great hit with kids, adults alike and very easy to make-ahead especially for potlucks/ parties etc as finger food. I have one of my friend actually learn how to make it and an elderly neighbor who used to request these sandwiches for her long distance travels.
