Ingredients

8 bread slices – whole wheat bread, brown bread or white bread
2 to 3 medium potatoes – boiled and mashed
1 or 2 green chilies – chopped finely
¼ teaspoon kashmiri chilli powder or paprika (optional)
¼ teaspoon Garam Masala
1 teaspoon dry mango powder (amchur powder) or as required or swap with ¼ teaspoon lemon juice
½ teaspoon cumin powder (ground cumin)
½ to 1 tablespoon chopped coriander leaves (cilantro) or swap with mint leaves
softened butter – salted or unsalted, as required
salt as required
grated cheddar cheese as required (optional)

Boiling potatoes

- Rinse the potatoes very well in water.

- Boil or steam the potatoes in a pan or pressure cooker or Instant pot until they are fork tender and can be easily mashed.

- Drain all the water from the cooked potatoes and peel them when they become warm. Mash them in a mixing bowl. You can mash them with a fork or a potato masher.

Making potato sandwich

- Add all the herbs and ground spices powders – chopped green chilies, coriander leaves, red chili powder, garam masala powder, dry mango powder, cumin powder and salt as required. Mix very well.

- Check the seasoning and add more of salt, red chili powder, dry mango powder if required.

- Spread butter generously on half of the bread slices.

- Take some portion of the potato stuffing and spread it on the buttered bread slices.

- Optional step – sprinkle some grated cheese.

- Cover the bread slices with the remaining buttered slices.

- Spread some butter lightly on the top of the bread sandwiches.

- Place the sandwiches buttered side down carefully.

- Note: Be careful when doing this. If you cannot do this then just skip the above step. Instead spread butter once the sandwiches are grilled.

- Now spread butter on the top of the bread slices facing you.

- Cover the grill and grill for 2 to 3 minutes or till the sandwiches are golden and crisp.

- Serve potato sandwich hot with tomato sauce or cilantro chutney or both.
