Ingredients
Measuring cup used, 1 cup = 250 ml, 1 tsp = 5 ml
For the veggie mayo mixture
- 1/2 cup shredded cabbage
- 1/2 cup shredded red cabbage
- 1/2 cup grated carrots
- 1/2 cup finely chopped green bell peppers
- 1/2 cup finely chopped onions
- 1/3 to 1/2 cup mayonnaise, I've used vegan mayo
- 1/2 teaspoon red chilli flakes

- Salt and pepper, to season
Other ingredients
- 8 bread slices

Instructions
- Mix all the ingredients listed under- For the veggie mayo mixture in a mixing bowl. Mix well.
- Apply butter on 8 slices, and coriander chutney on 4 slices to which butter has been applied.
- Spread a generous amount of the mayo veggie mixture on the butter+ chutney slice.
- Heat a skillet/tava on medium heat. Close the slices, apply butter on the outer slice facing upwards. Place the sandwich, butter-side-down on the griddle,/tawa, press it lightly with a spatula, toast on medium-low heat for 1-2 minutes or until golden brown, meanwhile, apply butter on the other side flip and let that side toast until golden brown. If you are grilling in a panini press, apply butter on both sides and grill. Cut into diagonals and serve with green chutney or tomato ketchup. Enjoy!!
Notes
- A thick slice of bread works best for these sandwiches, as they don't get too mushy while grilling/toasting.
- You can use mayo instead of butter to toast the sandwich, it gives a nice golden color.
- If you grill/toast these sandwiches, serve them immediately or else they will get soggy.
- Do not prepare the veggie-mayo spread in advance, as the salt added with cause veggies to lose moisture, making the spread a watery mess.
- Spike the flavor of this spread by adding chilli sauce/sriracha/ketchup/mustard/relish/curry powder etc, customize it and make it your own.
- You can easily make 4 sandwiches with this quantity of the veg mayo mixture, if your bread slices are small, you can probably make even 6 sandwiches.
- If using a skillet to toast the sandwich, exercise precaution, as you may get burns if your hands accidentally touch the rim of the pan.
