Season with black pepper powder and salt. Then add tomato ketchup and red chilli sauce. You can also use schezwan sauce or pizza sauce. Also, add red chilli flakes and mozzarella cheese.
Step 2: Take bread slices and spread butter on them. Place the onion stuffing on one of the slices and top with mayonnaise. Place the other bread slice on top to cover it. To make it cheesier, you can also add a cheese slice or just add a cheese slice and skip the mayonnaise. The choice is yours.
