Sandwich is a regular thing on our breakfast menu. You just have to be creative with the topping. The most common stuffing is Onion,cucumber,tomato,boiled mashed potato topped with lots of cheese and the breads are slathered in Coriander mint chutney. Another favorite is a simple egg bhurji (Indian Scrambled egg) sandwich. These are the two quick sandwich for a busy weekday morning.
I usually make this sandwich on a weekend or on weekday for dinner along side some soup/stew. You really need to be patient while caramelizing the onions. A little underdone or burnt onions would spoil the enter dish. And believe me the light sweet note of caramelized onion is just mind fantastic.
Instead of bruschetta you can also make sandwich with the stuffing.
