Doha-based Kajal Saini's fun take on the humble cheese-chutney sandwich has given the dish a spectacular facelift.

Slipper Sandwich

Serves: 2

Ingredients

• 4 slices of bread, preferably white but opt for a healthier version too
• 100 gm homemade mint chutney
• Chilly flakes, as per taste
• Oregano, as per taste
• 2 slices of cheese, cut into halves
• 4 to 8 thick slices of green cucumber, cut into halves, to create the straps of the slippers, skin intact
  
• 1 red chilly, split in the centre and cut into 4-6 pieces or 2 cherry tomatoes cut into halves

Method

• Trim the edges off the slices of the bread and cut each into two.
  Spread a tbsp of the mint chutney over the slices and lay them out on a cutting board.
  Sprinkle some chilly flakes and oregano.
• To assemble, starting with the bottom layer, take one half slice of bread with mint chutney.
  Place half a slice of the cheese over it.
  Press another half slice of bread, chutney side down. The sandwich is ready. 
• Repeat the process with the other slices to get around 4 sandwiches.
• Using a pair of scissors, trim the edges so that it resembles the sole of a slipper. Watch the video to see how to do it.
• Place the sandwiches on a tray.
  Arrange two cucumber slices over the sandwich to resemble the straps of the slippers.
  Place a piece of the cut red chilly or cherry tomato where the slices of cucumber meet.
  Please check the pic above.
  Serve the sandwiches with chips and ketchup.
