Palak Paneer Bhurji Sandwich
Ingredients
- 4 Slices Bread ( Whole Wheat/ white or Sourdough
- 1/4 Cup Green Chutney
- 1/4 Cup Tomato Ketchup
- 2 Slices Cheese ( Cheddar or Mozzarella) (optional)
- 1/2 Cup Palak Paneer Bhurji

Instructions
- First of all, apply thin layer of butter on inside of the bread slices. If you are using white bread , applying butter before applying chutney will prevent it from getting soggy. If you are using sourdough or crusty bread you can skip this step.
- Next , apply green chutney on inside of 1 bread slice and tomato ketchup on inside of another slice.
- Put a thick layer of paneer bhurji evenly on 1 slice and top with the cheese slice. You can skip the cheese if you don't like it.
