Meat lovers, u wont miss the meat if you have this terrific grilled vegetable and cheese sandwich.
Besides all the veggies- eggplant, potatoes, mushrooms( is it actually a veggie? :s) this sandwich has got two other components which will enhance the taste. They are hummus and garlic sauce ( toum sauce). Moreover, you can never go wrong with some good cheese. I used mozzarella. The gooey melted mozzarella cheese adds richness to this delicious vegetarian sandwich. This sandwich is quite substantial and filling.
Actually i am not a big fan of veggies. This recipe is my sisters creation. She had sent me the recipe and asked me to try this one out. I was least interested to make this at first, but to her compulsion i made it. And thank God i made it, coz i luuuved it, my husband loved it too who is a big time veggie hater.
If you are a veggie fan or not, do try this one out and I’m sure you guys will rave about the simply fabulous flavor of this hearty grilled veggie sandwich.

Makes around 4 sandwiches
1 Potato – sliced into thin rounds
1 Eggplant – sliced into thin rounds
10 mushrooms – sliced thinly
1 tsp chilly powder
1 tsp garlic powder
3 tbsp olive oil
Salt to taste
Bread slices
Hummus
Garlic sauce
Pizza sauce or sweet chilly sauce
Sliced olives
Parsley leaves – chopped
Jalapeño or pickled chilly
Pickled veggies
Shredded mozzarella cheese
- Marinate the eggplant and potatoes in chilly powder, garlic powder, 1 tbsp olive oil and salt.
- Heat 2tbsp olive oil in a pan, and shallow fry the marinated eggplant and potatoes.
- Once done remove from pan and sauté the mushrooms till the water dries up.
- Place the bread and spread the hummus and garlic sauce on one side and the pizza sauce/ sweet chilly sauce on the other.
- Place the cooked vegetables on the bread, then add the pickled chillies and veggies.
- Then add the parsley, olives and the shredded mozzarella.
- Place the other slice on top and toast either in a sandwich maker or on a pan. For the latter, add a few drops of olive oil onto the pan and grill the sandwich on both sides on low heat.
- Serve hot.
Notes:
✔I have used white bread in these sandwiches. But you can use any bread that you like. I guess soft whole wheat bread would work great as well.
✔Grill the sandwich just before serving to get the crunchy texture.
✔ The amount of grilled vegetables you want to add in each sandwich is based upon personal preferences, i prefer using little less.
