Sowcarpet Sandwich

Two days back, I had been to a place called Sowcarpet in Chennai with my cousin, Uma.
It’s a whole sale market area. We had spent almost half a day there.

Uma, has had sandwich from a particular sandwich shop in that area sometime back. It seems that shop is known for their sandwiches. She took me to that shop. Sandwich was indeed very amazing and I particularly liked the chutney that he had used.

I asked the person for the recipe. He was not willing to share. I requested him again and very reluctantly, he mentioned the ingredients he used to make the chutney. Not only that, he assured me that it will not be possible for me to make chutney like him.
I thanked him for the recipe and told him that I’ll try my best:)

I do hope that I have done my best. My family like it and I was satisfied with the chutney too:)

Sharing the recipe with you all and hope you would like it too:)

  1. I want to show my appreciation to the writer for bailing me out of this particular situation. As a result of browsing throughout the world-wide-web and obtaining thoughts that were not powerful, I thought my entire life was done. Living devoid of the answers to the difficulties you’ve fixed through your blog post is a crucial case, and the kind that could have in a wrong way damaged my entire career if I hadn’t come across your web site. That training and kindness in controlling all the details was very useful. I’m not sure what I would have done if I had not encountered such a thing like this. It’s possible to at this time look forward to my future. Thank you very much for this skilled and sensible guide. I will not think twice to suggest your web sites to anyone who would like support on this subject matter.
