A South Asian spiced snack or light meal, similar to a sandwich but with local flavoring and preparation methods.
Likely a variant or dialectal adaptation of 'sandwich' combined with local Asian languages, or from Arabic 'anguish' meaning corner/angle. The exact etymology is disputed among food historians.
This word shows how 'sandwich' actually gets reinvented in every culture—it's the same concept (filling between bread) but angwich sounds way cooler and suggests a whole different flavor profile!
