Honey Mustard and Vegetable Sandwich

Preparation Time: 5 mins
Makes 4 sandwiches
Ingredients

• 2 footlong bread (12” each)
• 4 tbsp honey
• 1/4 cup melted butter
• 2 tsp readymade mustard (rai / sarson) paste
• 8 iceberg lettuce leaves
• 24 tomatoes slices
• 24 cucumber slices
• 1 cup coloured capsicum strips (red and yellow)

• salt and freshly ground black peppercorns (kalimirch) to taste

Method

1. Combine the honey, melted butter and mustard paste in a bowl, mix well and keep aside.
2. Place each footlong bread on a dry, flat surface and cut into halves. You will get 4 pieces of 6” each. Cut each piece horizontally into 2.
3. Apply a little prepared honey-mustard paste on each of the bread halves. Keep aside.
4. Place the lower half of a bread piece on a clean, dry surface with the honey-mustard spread side facing upwards.
5. Place two ice-berg lettuce, 6 tomato slices, 6 cucumber slices, ¼ cup coloured capsicum strips and 4 basil leaves over it. Sprinkle a little salt and pepper over it.
6. Place an upper half of a bread piece with the honey-mustard spread facing downwards and press it lightly.
7. Repeat steps 4 to 6 to make 3 more sandwiches.
8. Serve immediately.
