Steps:
- Hari chutney:
- Purée apple, lime juice, ginger, garlic, cilantro, mint, sugar, a pinch of salt, and 1-2 chiles, depending on how spicy your chiles are and your heat preference, in a blender, scraping down sides and adding water by the tablespoonful, until a smooth paste forms. Taste and season with more salt or sugar if needed. (You should have about 1 cup, which is more than you'll need for the sandwiches. Color will fade as it sits.)
- Do ahead: Chutney can be made 3 days ahead. Transfer to an airtight container; cover and chill.
- Filling and assembly:
- Heat oil in a medium cast-iron or nonstick skillet over medium. Add mustard seeds and cook until popping, about 30 seconds. Add curry leaves and cumin seeds. Cook, stirring with a wooden spoon, until slightly darkened in color, about 1 minute. Stir in coriander, turmeric, asafetida (if using), and 1-2 chiles. Crumble potato into pan in large pieces and add salt. Cook, coarsely mashing and tossing potatoes to coat, until warmed through, about 2 minutes. Fold in cilantro and chaat masala. Transfer filling to a bowl. Wipe out pan and reserve.
- Arrange 4 slices of bread on a cutting board. Spread some chutney over each slice. Divide filling among slices and top with red onion, green pepper, then cheese. Spread 1 side of remaining 4 bread slices with more chutney and close up sandwiches. Spread ghee over outside of top slices of bread.
- Heat reserved pan over medium. Working in batches if needed, melt a small knob of ghee in pan, then arrange sandwiches, buttered side up, in pan. Cook until golden brown underneath, about 4 minutes. Turn over and cook, pressing down occasionally with the back of a spatula or the bottom of a saucepan, until cheese is melted and other side is golden brown, about 4 minutes.
- Serve toasties with extra chutney and ketchup alongside.
- Chef's note: Sandwiches can be made in a panini or sandwich press as well, or ideally a toastie maker.
BOMBAY ROLLS
In this recipe I've attempted to embody the spirit of a Bombay sandwich-a sharp, hot green chutney, cheese, and onion-but in a quick puff-pastry roll.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 425°F and line a 9-inch x 16-inch baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Put the cilantro, mint, lemon juice, chiles, cumin, salt, and oil into a blender, and pulse until you have a smooth chutney that is thick and spreadable. Taste: it should be hot, herby, salty, and sour all at once. If it isn't, adjust as you see fit.
- Sprinkle a little flour over your work surface and lay out the pastry. Spread the surface of the pastry with the cilantro chutney, leaving a 1-inch strip free along the top edge (the side farthest from you). Add the cheddar in a similarly even layer and scatter the onion over the top, then brush the exposed strip with beaten egg.
- Roll the pastry in a tight spiral away from you until you have a big jelly roll. Cut the roll into 1½-inch-wide pieces and lay each piece on the baking sheet with a 2-inch gap between them. Brush each cut side with egg, then place in the hot oven and cook for 20-25 minutes or until the tops are golden brown and caramelized. Allow to cool slightly before separating and eating.
MASALA TOMATO SOUP WITH BOMBAY GRILLED CHEESE SANDWICHES
Is there anything more comforting than grilled cheese and tomato soup? This recipe kicks this iconic combo up a notch, adding texture and complexity to the sandwiches with a vibrant cilantro chutney and thinly sliced onions-inspired by the Bombay toasts made in South Asian home kitchens. Warming spices (including a rich chhonk of tempered cumin seeds) make the dish even cozier. This is meant to be a quick-to-assemble meal but let the soup simmer on low heat for even longer if you want deeper flavors.

Steps:
- For the soup: In a large Dutch oven, heat the oil over medium heat until shimmering, add the onion, ginger and garlic, and cook, stirring, until the onion is translucent, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the tomatoes, broth, heavy cream, garam masala, pepper and salt and stir to combine. Taste and adjust the seasoning. Cover and cook until the flavors have really deepened and the soup has thickened, 20 to 30 minutes.
- In the meantime, make the chhonk: Melt the ghee in a butter warmer or small pan over medium heat. Add the cumin seeds and toast for a minute or less, until the cumin seeds turn fragrant and a deeper shade of brown. Remove from the heat and stir in the chile powder and asafetida. Drizzle the chhonk over the soup once it's done.
- While the soup is cooking, make the chutney and assemble and cook your sandwiches.
- For the sandwiches: Spread a thin layer of the chutney on four slices of the bread, then evenly distribute the cheese on top (adding more, if you'd like), followed by the onions. Close each sandwich with the remaining four slices of bread and slather the tops of the sandwiches with a generous amount of mayonnaise (this will let the sandwich brown in the skillet).
- Heat a cast-iron skillet over medium heat. Once it's hot, add a sandwich, mayonnaise-side down. Slather the side of the sandwich that's now on top with mayonnaise. Once the sandwich is golden brown on the bottom, flip and cook until the other side is golden brown and the cheese is fully melted. While the sandwich is cooking, use a spatula to press down on the sandwich and bind the cheese and bread together. Repeat with the remaining sandwiches.
- Slice the sandwiches in half and serve with the soup.
- Combine all the ingredients in a food processor and process until homogeneous, adding more lime juice or water if needed to get the blades moving.

Steps:
- Make sure your cream cheese is at room temperature. Grate the sharp cheddar cheese. Combine the cream cheese, grated cheddar cheese and curry. I beat it by hand until smooth. Shape the mixture into a ball and place on plastic wrap. Shape the ball into a 5 1/2 inch diameter disc, about 1 inch high. Cover with plastic wrap and chill at least 60 minutes, overnight is best.
- To assemble the platter for consumption, place cheese in the center of a serving tray. You will now spread the chutney over the top of the cheese disc. Sprinkle coconut, toasted nuts, scallions and currants over the chutney. The measurements given were originally give to me. I am usually more generous with the toppings.
- To serve, I cut the apples into thin wedges and toss with lemon or Fruit Fresh a produce protector by Ball, to prevent discoloration. Arrange the wedges and crackers around the cheese.
- Note: The cheese can be made up to 2 days in advance; cover and chill until ready to serve. The platter can be prepared up to an hour before serving, if kept cool.

- Cook oil, mustard seeds, and turmeric in a large skillet over medium-high, stirring occasionally, until seeds begin to pop, about 1 minute. Add onions and season with salt. Cook, stirring occasionally, until onions are beginning to soften, about 4 minutes. Reduce heat to medium-low and cook, stirring occasionally, until onions are softened and jammy and starting to brown around the edges, 15–20 minutes. Set jam aside. Do ahead: Jam can be made 1 week ahead. Transfer to an airtight container; cover and chill.
- Purée scallions, chile, garlic, ginger, cilantro, mint, lemon juice, a big pinch of salt, and ⅔ cup water in a blender until smooth. Transfer to a small bowl. (Makes about 2 cups. Store leftovers in an airtight container; cover, chill, and use within 3 days.)
- Place potatoes in a large pot and pour in cold water to cover by 1". Add a large handful of salt (water should taste briny) and bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer until potatoes are very tender but not falling apart, 30–35 minutes. Drain and let sit until cool enough to handle. Peel potatoes and slice ¼" thick. Let cool completely.
- Slather one side of bread slices with scallion chutney. Distribute half of Monterey Jack and half of cheddar over 8 slices. Top with some reserved onion jam, followed by 3–4 potato slices. Sprinkle with chaat masala, then top with remaining cheese; close up sandwiches.
