This ethnic delight is the street food of Mumbai. Walk down any street and seek out a "Bhaiya" (sandwich vendor). Have him/her make you one to order. Simple, clean and deliciously different, the veggie sandwich is a staple for the people of Mumbai. It's served hot, on three slices of bread, and frankly I was shocked to see the use of ketsup. One of my favorite secret pleasures. We loved it!
The chutney is simple and so incredibly fresh tasting. I think when I make it at home I'll be putting it on many a sandwich.
