potato sandwich recipe with step by step photos – to make these grilled sandwiches with a spiced potato stuffing is very easy. all you need are some boiled potatoes, spices, butter and bread.
use any bread which you like or prefer for making these potato sandwiches. a day old bread is also fine. homemade bread is better.
i have made these potato sandwiches with homemade whole wheat bread. i generally make a loaf of bread or pav/buns once a week. these get used up in making various snacks like sandwiches and sometimes desserts like a bread pudding. the pav or rolls are served with usal (sprouts curry) or pav bhaji.
i have used the same recipe for the spiced potato stuffing masala, which i always make for aloo paratha.
these potato sandwiches can be served with tomato ketchup or coriander chutney. they do make for a good breakfast/brunch or snack option.

Hi Dassana, I have been following your recipes since long and we are a fan of your recipes! Not much of a cook myself, I have tried many of your recipes and have always succeeded. Haven’t commented in other recipes, but all that I have tried so far have been marvelous! Please do keep posting new recipes. Regards from Mumbai!

Great recipe. Tried it and turned out great.

Welcome Santosh

Made sandwich with a few variations. Had a few left over veggies from pav bhaji like beans capsicum and carrot so, i sauteed veggies along with boiled potatoes. As i did not have sandwich maker so i made it on non stick pan. It was a delicious dinner for all of us. We all thoroughly enjoyed it. Thank you very much. Keep up the good work.
so pleased to know this sabina 🙂 thankyou for always sharing your views with us.
Hello amit, My sandwitches turn out very good but they are not presentable as yours because i prepare them on stove top. I wanna buy/ invest in good griller. Could you please suggest the one you are using?
Thanks in advance
welcome rutba. i have used bajaj as well as morphy richards. both are good. bajaj brand sandwich maker was very quick in grilling and toasting. morphy richards take more time. morphy richards one which i have also has a waffle maker. if you don’t not going to make waffles then you can go for bajaj.
Hi Mrs. Dassana Amit,
Being very honest i dont know the ABCD of cooking.
But ever since i accidently surfed through your blog and went through your reciepes i became your fan. I thought of giving it a try and started cooking based on your reciepes which are very simple to follow and easy as its all wel illustrated with photos through out the whole process. I have been desperatly trying to find time to sit down and comment on all your dishes that i have tried but due to time constrain it never happened. so today i finally thought of sitting down and letting you know that i..sorry not just i but even my wife(i recently got married and like wise my wife too doesnt know cooking that well) are your die hard fans.
Btw i tried this sandwich…..and trust me it was simply awesome just like all your fabolous dishes.
Thanks for your love, care,effort and time that you have taken and put forward for this blog. It really helps amateur cooks like us.
Humble request : Please dont ever stop cooking as well as experimenting on new dishes and dont forget to upload them.
Thanking you
Yours truly
