I prefer this sandwich for breakfast or as snack while going for some picnic or tour. The reason is simple.. we can prepare it previous night itself so that there will be no worry about the morning breakfast! This recipe is from a Kannada magazine which I came across couple of years back.

Ingredients

• Carrots – 2, medium size
• Tomato, finely chopped – 2 tablespoons
• Onion, finely chopped – 1, medium size
• Curry leaves, finely chopped – 1 tablespoon
• Coriander leaves, finely chopped – 1 tablespoon
• Green chillies, chopped – 1 tablespoon (adjust to taste)
• Ginger-garlic paste – 1 tablespoon

4. Add the chopped tomato and sauté for 2–3 minutes.
5. Add the chopped onion and grated carrot, then cook on medium flame, covering halfway with a lid.
6. Once half-cooked, add chopped coriander, curry leaves, and salt. Mix well and check the taste. Most of the water content will evaporate as it cooks.
7. Add a few drops of lime juice, mix, and remove from flame. Let it cool for a few minutes.
8. Roast one side of the bread slices on a heated tawa, generously with ghee if you like.
9. Spread the carrot mixture on the roasted side of one bread slice, then place another slice on top so both roasted sides touch the mixture.
10. Roast the outer sides of both bread slices nicely, then cut across and serve. Can be eaten immediately or preserved for the next day.

Tips

• Prepare the carrot mixture the night before to save time on busy mornings or before a trip.
• Add lime juice only at the end, after removing from heat, to keep the flavor fresh.
