Bread omelette sandwich recipe – Quick and easy breakfast sandwich recipe made with bread and eggs. Bread omelet sandwich is one of the street foods of India and is made with tons of variations. Some places even customize the bread omelet to suit the customer’s tastes as per the order.

As with all egg or cheese recipes, this sandwich too has to be consumed within 2 hours of preparing it if not refrigerated. So it is not safe to pack this in the tiffin or lunch box unless it is refrigerated.

Tips for bread omelette

  1. I have made this sandwich without any chutney, but I have tried this with schezwan sauce, tomato sauce & green chutney on different occasions & felt the sauce really enhances the flavor of the bread omelet. So for variations you can try with this green chutney or schezwan sauce.
  2. You can also make this sandwich without cheese. I have used mozzarella cheese. Feel free to replace it with cheddar cheese. You can also skip the cheese and just make the bread omelet.
  3. If you follow the food combining rules, then avoid using tomato sauce.
  4. For health reasons, favor brown bread or multi grain bread.
  5. You can also sprinkle some chaat masala on the sandwich

Preparation for bread omelet

1. Beat the eggs in a bowl until frothy.

8. Flip and toast it on both the sides on a low flame until the cheese begins to melt. Press it down with a spatula while you toast the bread. Alternately you can also toast this in a hot sandwich toaster.

I think you’ll find with 1 whole egg, plus the 1.5 tsp oil there is at least 8-9 gems of fat in this sandwich. Great idea for kids
