Mango Sandwich

A summer special sandwich

Mango sandwiches, cut and ready-to-eat.

It is peak summer time in Mumbai right now, which means that it is mango season! I wanted to eat a new kind of a sandwich, and this is what I came up with. This sandwich contains mangoes and mint leaves and basil leaves. The mangoes give it a rich and sweet taste, while the herbs bring in a hint of freshness. It makes for a quick, easy, and tasty meal for the summer. I hope you try making this yourself and like it!
