Ingredients
Filling
- 10 leaves Spinach
- ½ cup Corn Kernels boiled, sweet
- 2 tbsp Hung Yogurt or greek yogurt
- 4 tbsp Potato Bhujiya
- 1 ½ tsp Salt or to taste
- 1 Chili green
- 2 clove Garlic
Instructions
- Blanch the spinach leaves in boiling water for one minute to brighten their color and soften their texture. This brief cooking time helps retain the spinach's nutrients.
- Transfer the blanched spinach to a blender or food processor. Add salt, green chili, hung curd (or Greek yogurt), garlic, and potato bhujiya. Blend until a smooth paste forms.
- Transfer the spinach mixture to a bowl. Gently fold in the boiled sweet corn kernels.
- Trim the crusts from the bread slices (optional). Spread butter on one side of each bread slice. This prevents the sandwich from becoming soggy and adds flavor.
- Evenly spread the spinach-corn mixture on four of the buttered bread slices. Top with the remaining buttered slices to form sandwiches.
- Heat butter in a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Toast the sandwiches until golden brown and crispy on both sides. The butter adds a rich flavor and helps create a perfect crust.
- Cut each sandwich in half and serve immediately with a hot cup of tea or your favorite beverage.
Recipe Notes
Good To Know
- If making this for children, use plain bhujiya (sada bhujiya).
- For extra flavor, sauté the garlic and spinach together before mixing with the other filling ingredients. This helps mellow the garlic and prevents raw spinach from making the sandwich soggy.
- If packing for a lunchbox, toast the bread slightly before assembling to prevent it from becoming too soft by lunchtime.
- Try adding a pinch of chaat masala or a squeeze of lemon juice to the filling for a tangy, street-food-inspired twist that pairs well with the creamy hung curd.
- For a vegan version, substitute hung curd with thick coconut yogurt or mashed silken tofu, and use vegan bread.
Expert Tips
- For a richer flavor, consider adding a thin layer of mint-coriander chutney to your bread slices before adding the filling.
- Cut the sandwiches into fun shapes using cookie cutters for a more appealing presentation, especially for kids.
- If you don't have hung curd, Greek yogurt can be a good substitute, although it will have a slightly tangier taste.
Storage Instructions
- These sandwiches are best enjoyed fresh. If you need to store them, wrap them tightly in plastic wrap or aluminum foil and keep them in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours. Avoid storing them for longer, as the bread may become soggy.
