Sandwiches are a good example of old-fashioned fusion food. With England as a colonial power, the natives learned to bake bread and biscuits for their new countrymen. Breakfast with stuffed prantha among Indians + loaf for the English = sandwich with filling. When the English were in India, they left behind several such habits.
You can try my favorite vegetarian sandwich with potatoes , other fillings you like, leftovers from dinner etc. I used this simple but tasty filling. Can be made with or without cheese.
