Kids always love sandwiches. And if you want to give them a good nutrition along with taste then do give your child this paneer sandwich. Paneer is very rich in protein. Not only protein but it also has a good amount of vitamins and minerals required by our body.

Here I have grilled the sandwich but you can even toast it also. In the remarks section, I have also described how to make this sandwich on tava if you don’t have a sandwich maker. While making on tava just keep the flame low so that you can get the perfect crispy and golden brown texture.

You can also use brown bread instead of white bread. Even instead of regular paneer tofu can be used. Tofu us was also known as soya paneer. Eat this sandwich during breakfast or as a brunch. Serve with green coriander chutney or tomato ketchup.
