FAQs

Can I prepare the Aloo Matar Sandwich in advance?

You can cook the potato and pea mixture in advance, making the sandwich easy to assemble whenever required. Just allow the cooked mixture to cool, keep it in an airtight container in the fridge for 2-3 days, and you're set. Spread the filling on your bread, toast, or grill the sandwich, and voilà! It is, therefore, a perfect snack or lunch for busy days and meals prep.

What are some bread options I can use for the Aloo Matar Sandwich?

Traditionally, white or whole wheat bread is used in Aloo Matar Sandwich; however, be as creative as you like. For a different texture, you can use multigrain bread for a healthier twist, such as sourdough, baguette, or even pita bread. For a gluten-free version, gluten-free bread or wraps work well too. You can also try naan or paratha for an Indian-inspired take on the sandwich. Bread versatility allows you to customise the sandwich according to your taste or dietary needs.

How would I make my Aloo Matar Sandwich spicy?

If you want to add a little oomph or a hot wave to your Aloo Matar Sandwich, add some chopped green chillies to your potato and peas mixture or sprinkle red chilli powder. Chaat masala or a few drops of hot or green chilli sauce can also be added. Roasted cumin powder or smoked paprika are also good to add for a smokier flavour. These subtleties have the right spiciness to spice up your sandwich without overpowering other flavours.
