Suspicious sandwich/Veggie wraps

This recipe has an interesting story behind its name. My son started calling it the "suspicious sandwich" because every time I made it for him, he was surprised by what was inside. The sandwich always had a burst of different flavors that he enjoyed every single time, making it one of his favorites. It's also my go-to recipe when I'm short on time but still need a healthy, filling meal. I've experimented with several variations of this recipe, and I'll share one in detail in this post, along with other variations in the notes section until I can create a separate post for them.

TOTAL TIME
  
Makes 5-6 sandwiches



Ingredients:

  • 1 packet ready to make roti's or tortilla
  • 1 cup - Shredded Cabbage 
  • 1 cup - Sliced onion 
  • 1 cup - Sliced Tomato
  • 1 cup - Spinach leaves
  • 1 cup - Cucumber
  •  Bitchin' sauce
  • Salt to taste
  •       Crushed black pepper
  •       3 cubes - Amul cheese (Any other cheese can be used as well)
  •       Olive oil to grill the sandwich 




 Preparation:
  1. Heat a griddle on medium flame till hot
  2. Half cook the roti/tortilla and let it cool
  3. Now fold the roti/torilla twice to make a quarter/triangular shape
  4. Open it back and make a slit half way through (see the video for details)
  5. On one of the quarter of the roti apply the bitchin' sauce (I used pesto), you can use any other of your choice. Also this can be replaced with Mayo, Indian mint Chutney, traditional pesto, hummus etc
  6. In the remaining 2 quarters add the veggies. The veggies can be placed in layers. I love it loaded with veggies
  7. In the last quarter, add grated cheese
  8. Now, starting with the quarter with the sauce - Start placing the quarters on the next quarter and continue to do that until we have the sandwich in the shape of a quarter(triangle)
  9. Apply some oil or butter to a heated griddle
  10. Place the sandwich on the griddle and cook till crispy and brown
  11. Flip around and cook the other side as well
  12. The sandwich is ready to be served with ketchup, Indian mint chutney or can be just eaten as is. All have its own flavor burst


NOTE:
  • This is just one variation of the sandwich. We can use different sauces, different veggies and make it with your own preferences
  • For added protein content, we can also roast and add a slice of paneer, Tofu along with vegetables
