SMASHED CHANNA & CHUTNEY SANDWICHES ft D All Starz

Joel makes his twist on the traditional channa and cheese combo with True Bread to take for D All Starz Band.

Ingredients

6 – 8 slices TRUE Bread (white, multi-seed or wheat)

1 can channa/chickpeas drained and rinsed

½ small red onion, diced

1 small sweet pepper, seeded and diced

3 tbsp tamarind chutney

1½ tbsp lime juice

Salt and black pepper

1 tbsp chopped fresh thyme or shadon beni

Few dashes pepper sauce

Cheddar cheese slices

Avocado slices, optional

Directions

  1. Lightly toast the slices of True Bread.
  2. Place the channa in a food processor. Pulse just until the channa is crushed but still chunky. Remove and place in a bowl.
  3. Add the remaining ingredients (up to pepper sauce) and mix well. Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary.
  4. Assemble the sandwiches. Spread some of the channa mixture on one slice of True Bread. Op with a couple slices of cheese followed by some avocado slices. Top with another slice of bread. Cut the sandwich in half diagonally and serve.
