ISRAELI SABICH SANDWICH

Israel is illustrious for their toothsome falafel sandwiches, hommos, salad and baba ganouj.

But somehow, one of their stuff street foods never prefabricated it big surface of Land. The sabich is a sandwich layered with fried brinjal, hard-boiled foodstuff, Israeli salad, humous and pickles, then drizzled with tahini. It's a vegetarian's vision! The sabich sandwich is unremarkably ingested for breakfast, but makes a toothsome tiffin or dinner, too.
