I have come across children avoiding or refusing to eat sandwiches just because of the hard outer edges to digest. I am herewith improvising an unique method of overcoming this and enabling the children to participate in cooking for pleasure. I am organising the images as I proceed so that all the steps can be followed with ease.
Step 1: The Ingredients :
Bread Sandwich (Bigger size) | 800 gms | |
Onion Pieces | 2 to 3 nos medium | |
Potato | 2 nos medium | |
Green Peas (Mutter) | 100 gms | |
Capsicum | 2 nos medium | |
Bangalore Brinjal | one small size | |
Ginger | a small piece | |
For Roti Rings : | ||
Carrot | 200 gms | |
Methi or Pudina | 200 gms | |
Wheat Flour | 300 ml approx. | |
Cheese slices | 1 small size-5 in a packet ( Like Amul ) |
Organise and cut the ingredients into small pieces
Step 2 : Cook the filling in the normal way. Heat a table spoon of cooking oil in a kadai and add around one teaspoon of Jeera . Add Onions and when it is fried , add the remaining ingredients and cook them in the usual method.
Step 3 : Make one bigger ball, mixing wheat with methi/pudina and water . Make a smaller one mixing carrot and wheat flour with water. Kneed the mixtures to get the two balls . A little bit of Olive oil can be added to obtain a good dough. A good smooth dough will help in getting flare less edges while cutting using dies.
Step 5 : using the lids cut out
each roti as shown. You have to make one
set of roti without the inner circle to be used as the second layer over the
top of the first sandwich. Roast the roties together as shown to reduce the
time of roasting. You can use a small amount of olive oil.
Step
6 : Building up the layers in stages . You will
enjoy this portion.
Layer 1 : Bottom Bread slice
Layer 2 : Full circle die cut roti ( The centre
portion of this is not cut).
Layer 3 : First ring of Die cut roti
Layer 4 : Second ring of Die cut roti
Layer 5 : Stuff filling in the cavity of the shallow portion of
the rings
Layer 6 : One die cut ( smaller size ) Cheese Slice
Layer 7 : Top Bread Slice
Step 7 : Final Roasting under low heat . You can use
any sauce of your liking as side dishes. The combo sandwich is now ready for enjoying.

Dear Vaish
DeleteWell. I am glad to receive your quick response. This time I have introduced Ingredients by quantity/weight and with a tab control. I hope you appreciate the method. The item is basically a brunch. The left out edges can be finished later three hours after the brunch session. Thanks . Rangarajan Bangalore 19.02.2013 10:30 pm
