Method
step 1
Heat the oil in a pan, add the spices and ½ tsp salt and mix well. Add 2 tbsp water before adding the mashed potatoes and mix well. Remove from the heat and set aside.
step 2
Tip all of the chutney ingredients into a blender or food processor with ½ tsp salt and blitz until smooth. Add a tablespoon of water if needed to loosen a little.
step 3
Heat a large griddle pan over a medium heat. Butter both sides of one slice of bread and add to the pan. On top, add ¼ of the potato mixture and spread it out evenly. Top with a few slices of cucumber followed by a little beetroot, onion and tomato. Season with a pinch of salt and chaat masala. Take a second slice of bread and spread it with chutney. Lay it chutney-side down on top of the tomatoes, then spread the top surface with butter. Press down gently using a toastie press or a flat pan lid and toast on both sides for 2 mins each, or until golden brown. Repeat with the remaining ingredients, cooking two at a time if possible. Serve with any extra chutney on the side.
