”Keep it simple, the soft woodland mushroom flavour will do all the tricks needed. If you must, parmesan shavings added on serving will spruce it up further. Mondays should be flexible, so add what fits your mood.”

I first had this sandwich at the Ambassador Hotel in Bombay and have never forgotten how good it tasted. This is definitely one of the best sandwiches around. It is now sold in shops and supermarkets all over Bombay and, indeed, London but it won't be as good as this home-made version, especially when you know exactly what is going in it.
In true perfect housewife fashion, Anthea likes to use up the left-overs from the weekend and lists her favourite lunchtime sandwich as a Chicken Wrap with Salsa, Guacamole and Sour Cream. “I use up the roast chicken from the Sunday lunch and then add some fresh dips to it to create this delicious and nutritious wrap. And then I can use the rest of the dips for when my friends come round.”
