Ingredients

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 375 F. Melt the butter and mix in minced garlic and 1 teaspoon sandwich masala.
  • Slice the buns from the middle. Place the bottoms on a baking tray.
  • Spread half the seasoned butter.
  • Spread the chutney to cover the buns well.
  • Place an even layer of onions and peppers. Sprinkle the sandwich masala all over.
  • Top with the cheese blend.
  • Place in the preheated oven for 10 minutes. Remove once the cheese melts.
  • Place the bun tops and brush the remaining seasoned butter.
  • Bake for another 5 minutes and serve.

Notes

  • The recipe works well for any kind of buns or bread slices. Pick something like brioche, sourdough or white to crisp up well. Moist breads tend to become more soggy with the butter and fillings.
  • The seasoned butter adds a lot of taste and would be a great add to the recipe. Try not to skimp on that. 
  • Use slices or shredded cheese that would melt well. A mix of mozzarella and cheddar works well. Pre-sliced tends to remain clumpy and so I prefer to shred it off the block.
  • Add minced or sliced green chili along with peppers for extra spice in the recipe.
