Procedure
Curry for filling
Place a pan on medium heat with 1 tbsp of oil or ghee. When the oil is hot add chana dal, urad dal, mustard seeds and cumin seeds. Stir it once and add green chili. Keep stirring. When the mustard seeds are spluttering, add hing and curry leaves. Add onion, a pinch of salt and a pinch of turmeric powder. You may also add a few mint leaves. Cover it and let the onions fry for 2 minutes. Now it is time to add the boiled potatoes. Add enough salt and lemon juice. Mix it well and add finely chopped cilantro. Mix it again and keep it aside.
Making Sandwiches
Place 2 bread slices on a hot tawa or pan. When they are roasted, spread the potato curry on the roasted side of the bread slice. Cover with the other slice by facing the roasted side towards the curry. Place the sandwich back on tawa and press it gently with spatula so that the curry will stick to the bread and won't come out. You may use any other leftover curry for filling. Fry on both sides with some butter. Vegans may use coconut oil. If you do not want to use any oil just skip it and roast it on both sides. Serve it hot with tomato sauce or green mint chutney. Masala sandwiches are great for breakfast or lunch box.
