Normally, pinwheel sandwiches are served cold and it's a fireless recipe. But mine is a little different and when served hot, after being tossed in little oil with mustard seeds, they taste out of the world!

 My guests have always loved it. Whoever eats it once wants to have more and more of it.

At the same time, it is good to serve in breakfast or pack in the lunch box. You can make it the previous day and in the morning, just cut roundels and pack in the lunch box. Isn't it cool!

 

How to Make

Making these sandwiches is quite easy. Only 4 ingredients are required but you need to prepare them in advance. You need green chutney, tomato ketchup, and mashed potatoes filling for this recipe.

3 bread slices are joined together using water, fillings are laid and then the bread is rolled like a roll.

It is then kept in the refrigerator for some time and then cut into roundels. When cut, you get to see beautiful 3 different colored wheels inside it which looks amazing. Step by step photos will make it clear as to how to roll and then cut these.

Tips for the Perfect Outcome

  • After rolling the bread, do not try to roll hard or to give it smoothness at this stage otherwise, it will crumble. Instead, first, pack it in the foil. Once in the foil, the roll is protected and you can press it easily.
  • White bread gives the best results.
  • Leave the rolls in the refrigerator at least for an hour before cutting roundels. This will give you clean slices without any crumbs.

 

Step By Step Instructions

FAQs

Q) Can I make it ahead?

And the best thing is that you make it in advance. The rolls are made and kept in the refrigerator. At the time of serving, take out, cut roundels, saute in little oil, and are ready to be served.

Q) Shall I serve it cold or hot?

  • Some people like it raw but trust me, when cooked a little, just 1 to 2 minutes only, their taste changes altogether and you can't resist yourself.
  • But, if you want to have these cold,  then apply mayonnaise or Grated Cheese in place of potatoes.

 

Q) Any other choice of filling?

  • I have used green chutney, tomato ketchup, and potatoes in this recipe.
  • You can replace potatoes with Paneer Bhurji or any other veggie.
  • Cheese or mayonnaise can also be used in place of filling.
  • Basically, use anything of your choice and liking.
