then use sourdough bread. If you prefer a
sandwich that's not grilled, then use soft white bread.
- Veggies: Tomato, Onions, Cucumber, Potatoes.
- Cheese: Any cheese that melts well will work in this recipe.
I used white Mexican cheese, you can use Mexican cheese blend,
Cheddar Cheese, Pepper Jack Cheese, or even Amul Cheese.
It's best to use grated cheese.

Alternatively, you can use Mint Chutney or a combo of both. This is what makes the sandwich desi, in addition, to chat masala.
