Start by preparing the vegetable filling. In a mixing bowl, combine grated carrot, shredded cabbage, chopped green bell pepper, and chopped onion.
Add salt, black pepper, and red chili flakes (if using) to the vegetable mixture. Stir to combine evenly.
Stir in grated cheddar cheese and mayonnaise to the vegetable mixture to form a slightly creamy filling. Set aside.
Take the bread slices and spread a thin layer of butter on one side of each slice.
On the unbuttered side of 4 slices, spread an even layer of the vegetable filling.
Place the remaining 4 slices of bread, buttered side up, on top of the filling to form sandwiches.
Heat a skillet or sandwich press over medium heat. If using a skillet, place sandwiches in the pan and press lightly with a spatula.
Toast each sandwich for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until the bread is golden brown and crispy, and the cheese is melted.
Remove sandwiches from heat and let them cool slightly before slicing diagonally into halves or quarters.
Serve warm with ketchup or any dipping sauce of your choice.
