Aloo Cheese Sandwich

My sister came up with the idea of Indian style spiced potato and cheese sandwich, this was a successful recipe in my family. I have used a sandwich griller for making sandwiches, if it is not available you can use a toaster or pan to toast bread slices and then add the filling and cheese.
