Treat your ingredients with care...
- Bread — Choose a sturdy bread that can hold the filling without becoming soggy. Sourdough or whole wheat bread works well.
- Green chutney — You can make the green chutney by blending together fresh coriander, mint leaves, green chilies, ginger, garlic, lemon juice, and salt. Adjust the spice level according to your preference.
- Chaat masala — If you don't have chaat masala, you can substitute it with a mix of roasted cumin powder, amchur (dried mango powder), and a pinch of black salt for a similar tangy flavor.
