We have not used any oil, butter or ghee while preparing these sandwiches. If you use a good non stick pan, you won't need a single drop of oil. If you are in a hurry, you can have these sandwiches even without grill but if you grill them, they become even tastier.
You can roast them on a tawa, non stick pan or an electric toaster. If you are actually diet conscious, then refrain from adding too much salt or spices. Add very little salt and black pepper, if you want to. If you use home made chutney, make sure it has very little salt and spices. If you have these sandwiches in breakfast, then take fresh fruits, fruit juices or milk along with it for a complete breakfast meal. If you can make fresh orange juice at home and have it with any one of these sandwiches, then it can make for a complete breakfast meal.
