Aloo Tikki Sandwich

 

Potato tikki sandwich is what a quick evening snack would be. Simple to make, yet flavorful on the palate. If you want to opt for the healthier version swap the white bread to multigrain brown bread, and you can add beetroots and lettuce too. The tikki is quite flavorsome and the two sauces balance the sandwich altogether. Bringing in the freshness of the tomatoes, cucumber and onions.

Perfect for a quick breakfast, and easy to make.
