I'm Indian, I can confidently say you got as close as you can towards making a traditional Indian style sandwich. Congrats man. I learned a lot of recipes from you and it was refreshing for you to try out an Indian recipe. I would recommend to for Samosas next time. Remember, there are a ton of different variations in almost every Indian recipe but don't worry any one of them would be equally as good as the other one. We Indians use a ton of different dressing options and shit and I know from my own personal experience, YT videos are confusing to understand for a typical Indian recipe but hang in there buddy... I would highly recommend asking any Indian person you know in your friends' circle or acquaintance to help you differentiate a variation from a traditional plain recipe of any Indian dish. Peace out.

[@FEMADEATHCAMPCONTROL]

Samosas yes. My favorite Indian food.

[@SlamjackMonicker]

Being Indian doesnt mean you are entitled to rate any Indian food recipe. I mean no disrespect, but you need to realize when he made his blend of spices he didn't dry roast them first and that would render any masala mix to a garbage bin by even a small scale Indian restaurant.

[@ctakitimu]

@@pawangurjar9173 They weren't being critical, just pointing out some things. You went a bit 'Karen' there

[@nagesharas5136]

For sandwich, you need dry chutney, to prevent the bread from becoming soggy. Plus, the curd would rob the zing of the chutney, which is not preferred in street food. So curd is not added in this recipe. Curd (plain or hung) is added when you need the green chutney as a dip along with veg/nonveg snacks. Thinly sliced onion is also added on top. Typically, another sweet-sour chutney is also served with it to balance the taste.

[@nehathachil1819]

I’ve grown up in Bombay and have eaten these sandwiches everyday after school! Seeing you take so much time and effort to recreate something so local and special to everyone who has lived in Bombay was incredibly heartwarming. Also I have never seen someone actually make every single aspect of a dish from scratch especially while making Indian food because there are so many Masalas and ready made ingredients that are required. So the fact that you made everything from scratch was insane. You can tell how much time and effort has gone into making this sandwich video and for someone who has never even been to India I think you’ve done an incredible job!

Okay, I haven’t seen a Caucasian replicate an Indian dish so well, yeah, not even Gordon Ramsay! Let me just say it, this is the best version of an Indian Sandwich, if ever there was one! I don’t really like the way street food vendors treat the sandwich with mountains of toppings and ridiculous amount of vegetables stuffed between the breads. Everything about the way this sandwich was built from scratch was just spot on! From tempering the potatoes, to making your own sev and blending your own chutney(could’ve been better with few more additions) and chat masala. It is just a meticulously planned video which is kinda tribute to the Indian cookery.

​@@SKAOG21 The French word "crepe" and the English word "pancake" are synonyms; those thick things they eat for breakfast in North America are known as "American pancakes" or "griddle cakes" everywhere else :-) The key point is that a "pancake" is made in a frying pan (a crepe-pan is a special type of frying pan but is not obligatory to make crepes/pancakes), whereas an American "pancake" is made on a griddle. In Dutch-speaking countries they use the word "pannenkoek" (literally, "pancake") to mean the thin type of pancake also.

I noticed the packet said "black Hawaiian salt" which is sea salt and completely different. Kala namak is rock salt that is roasted in kilns. It's actually more of a pink/purple color when ground, never dark black, and it has a strong sulphur smell.

[@nida1990]

i thought the same thing that I the actual kala namak is actually not black!!

[@HRHKamal]

The Black salt that we use in India is actually Himalayan rock salt which you probably get in the US in the form of biggish crystal sugar size pieces in a grinder. The unground pieces are more dark pink in color than black. It grinds to a lovely pink colored fine crystals & has a unique " Chaatish " taste, try to pick some up at an Indian store, its very versatile in use. Btw Chaat as a verb indeed means lick, Chaat as noun is the category name of Indian savoury street snack food, of which the very popular Paani Puri you may have tried.

OMG! That is so effing on point! Gawwwddddd! 1. Kala namak is also known as himalayan black salt, has a very pungent smell and smells strongly of farts. But if added in limited quantity gives a umami pungent and amazing taste to the foods! 2. Toast your spices lightly before making Chaat masala. Or any other masala. Toasting releases oils which enhance The flavor.

[@saqeebkhan3668]

@Li saaa farts smell like rotten eggs soooooo

If you add green mango to the chutney it'll taste BOMB-ay

The potato masher to sev extruded was genius 👌 💪 Love how you made this sandwich. I’m super impressed. You pronounced everything perfectly 👌

As a kid this was literally the first thing I learnt to cook. My mom used to keep the chutney ready and I would cut the vegetables, prepare the sandwich and grill it. Really simple to make and tastes amazing.

If someone was to ask me my favourite food, It would probably be a tie between Indian and sandwiches haha so seeing this has really inspired me. I have been to India a couple times and never tried this. Definitely something to look out for when I return in february. Great video Mike!

[@crazyresh]

you are beyond amazing !! it was just fascinating to see prepare everything from scratch! Sev and chaat masala are things most of us Indians don't make at home on regular basis and you absolutely nailed it :) Thank you for keeping the recipe authentic and spreading awareness about Indian food!

This looks amazing! I love how you went all in to make all of your own ingredients! I need to try this 😊

[@madhuk1111]

excellent job making the "sev" .. ur ingenuity keeps me subscribed to the channel.. ! its high time u visited india.. u will be blown away by the variety of flavours..!

[@1sr0]

My goodness i cannot believe you made everything from scratch. I miss curry leaves so much. And I love everything you did is so authentic Indian. And I use the sev maker at home. Traditional recipe requires Indian rice flour along with gram flour (gets more crunchy) and adding crushed ajwain seeds makes it taste awesome. There are good and bad sev makers. The bad ones only Indian moms can use them 😂. anyway great video.

One of the things I love about Bombay sandwich is that, traditionally, it is cooked over coal. The taste is phenomenal. Sadly, most street vendors don't do this anymore because it's labour intensive and takes too long. So, I'm always in search of that vendor who makes my Bombay sandwich the traditional way. Loved this video. Great job!

[@ronyg7958]

Oh my god! Can't believe that you actually made Sev.. hats off to you dude.. brilliant job really

[@aries4081]

I am in complete awe of you! ❤️ You are incredible. Watching this video made me so so happy and it felt like I was making and tasting it with you! This video kept popping up in my home recommended for so long and I kept ignoring it thinking it's the same old sandwich, but BOY! I would have never thought what I was in for! I am saddened at how there are so many Indian restaurants in Boston city with Indian cooks but none of them remind me of home surprisingly, but just by seeing this, I know this tasted bomb!

[@ravid7094]

[@GatorAidMedical]

Indian subscriber for a while now, idk why I watched this bc I already know how to make it, but the bread in the blender thing left my jaw hanging!!!! That was awesome! The only critique I have is that the chutney was too fine and a little too light in color. A good chutney is really only a little finer than chimichurri, so still sauce-like but a little grittier and not quite sauce consistency.

[@starduck8014]

you've gotta get to India it's pretty incredible

[@Marco_Onyxheart]

Turmeric/kurkuma is also vital for American fry sauce. It reminded me of American fry sauce, as eaten in the Netherlands. Add turmeric, dill, onion powder to light mayonnaise or fry sauce. Maybe a drop of ketchup and mustard too. Sometimes, curry powder is used along with or instead of turmeric. That's traditional American fry sauce, the famous green stuff that is sold in bottles with a big American flag on it as well as at the Dutch McDonald's.

[@medhapaliwal6767]

[@PatSen]

Hi Mike! You seem to strive for the authentic all the time. And you are a seeker..exploring with the eyes and mind open, and one can bet that its not just with food. Bravo! If you ever are in Mumbai and feel like eating vegetarian food cooked by a fellow explorer, then do ping. I’d love to cook for you.

[@mforeveryours]

Wow, we are humbled seeing that you chose to make everything from scratch, and the ingredients (especially the spice blend) you used were what would be used in India too. Amazing 😍 P.S. I'm South Indian, and my grandmother makes sev that looks like yours. I'm not sure if the super thin sev is a North Indian creation or if it is machine made/mass produced, but yours looks exactly like the sev I grew up having. 😊

Being an Indian I must congratulate you on doing such a fantastic job !

wow i am impressed how you made the sev with your home made blade ....great job! You can buy these from amazon or next time i am travelling i will pick one up for you. To avoid the bread from getting soggy apply the butter to the slices inside and then top of with the chutney

[@chirpysangee]

Kudos to you!! You nailed it!!! I have been to places where we don't get Indian food easily I make at home ...so I really enjoyed watching you make everything from scratch.!!!

We have those sealing sandwich presses here in Australia too - you can get electric ones. They're great for grilled cheese, or tinned spaghetti/baked beans/meatballs/mini-frank sandwiches - but you can also use them to make mini one-person cakes, flat crispy muffins.... your imagination is the only limit.

[@TheHeraldOfChange]

+Tzisorey Tigerwuf Exactly! It's a Jaffle Iron, (in the USA called a, "Pie Iron" - try the Rome cast iron) but an electric sandwich maker will do the same thing.

You can actually make all this ahead of time and just throw the sandwich together very quickly. I nuked my refrigerated potato mixture before assembling.

Tip for chutney to add flavour: chillies, depending on your spice tolerance add like 1 chilly the flavour it adds is beautiful
