Ingredients

In this Andhra-style adaptation, we replace the traditional Spanish bread with a soft and fluffy Andhra-style bun called "pav." The original bocadillo typically uses mild salami, but we amp up the heat by using spicy salami. Additionally, we incorporate Andhra-style chutney and tamarind sauce to infuse the sandwich with the bold flavors of Andhra cuisine. We alse have the original recipe for Bocadillo de salami, so you can check it out.

Treat your ingredients with care...

  • Spicy Salami — If you prefer a milder flavor, you can use regular salami instead of spicy salami.
  • Andhra-style chutney — Adjust the spiciness of the chutney according to your taste preferences. You can add more green chilies for extra heat or reduce the amount for a milder version.
  • Tamarind sauce — If you don't have tamarind sauce, you can substitute it with a mixture of tamarind pulp and water.

Tips & Tricks

  • For an extra kick of flavor, lightly toast the pav buns before assembling the sandwich.
  • Customize the sandwich by adding your favorite Andhra-style pickles or chutneys.
  • If you prefer a vegetarian version, you can replace the salami with grilled paneer or tofu.
