Crispy pulses in a sandwich |
Tiny finger food |
It
can’t be helped, me sweeping everything
from the snacks to the spice section in Mustafa. It also didn’t help that it was a
Thursday evening when the crowd was thin and the inviting aisles were spilling every sort of snacks imaginable in full view before my eyes. Some, I
didn’t even know they exist!
One
of the exotic snack that is possibly found only in Mustafa is this assortment
of pulses. It looks good in theory until I tried to eat the tiny bits of puffed
beans with the hand. This is no finger food! Eating them by the spoonful seems
way wrong either, so I did the next best thing.
The
bean snack found its way in between 2 slices of smoked cheese and 4 pieces of
shaved ham. The 2 slices of 12 grain
wholemeal bread sealed the deal and made it look a lot healthier than it was.
I
felt I was eating the whole world – it’s an amalgam of east, west and something
in between. If only the world is like this – coming together for a better good
…
OK,
you get my drift. But seriously, ham cheese sandwich with a tangy, spicy,
crunchy filling is really something. This 200g pack at $1.70 is going to make
lots of sandwiches so I have better start thinking beyond ham and cheese.
Gotta
go. Lots of thinking to do.
What a great idea! Some crunch adds texture to the sandwich, not to mention the exotic flavors.
