Spinach Corn Sandwich | Grilled Corn and Spinach Sandwich Recipe

Grilled Corn and spinach sandwich recipe with step by step photos.I always look for various sandwich recipes as they are filling and can be made as a snack or for breakfast too,it can be easily packed for the lunch box as well.Though I have been preparing this sandwich for ages, I never got to post it in my blog.Better late than never , I am finally able to post this simple and delicious Sandwich recipe in my blog.

I love the grilled sandwich varieties where as TH likes the fresh sandwich varieties and few recipes suit for both the kinds. I make the fresh sandwich version for him and I prepare the grilled version for myself.Mumbai style Vegetable Sandwich is one example where one can eat it fresh or grilled and also this Spinach-Corn Sandwich can be done the same.Though taste wise both the fresh/grilled sandwiches taste nice I prefer the grilled version as I am inclined more towards the buttery cheesy hot grilled sandwich.

Spinach Corn sandwich is available in most of the coffee shops and pairs nicely with a cup of coffee or juice.You can serve this in a bite sized portions in your tea parties or it can be prepared like a open sandwich toast which makes a great appetizer for parties.The stuffing of the sandwich itself is so creamy that one can avoid the addition of cheese in the recipe but I do add cheese when I prepare it for my kiddo or for my guests.Also,I use mostly home made wheat bread for my sandwiches and I also prefer to add wheat flour instead of all purpose flour in the recipe for white sauce and I hardly find any difference when it comes to taste.Over all it is a healthy sandwich recipe(minus cheese) for adults and a wholesome Sandwich recipe for kids and even my three year old eats this sandwich without any complaints.

Serves 4 | Author: Prathibha

Prep time: 10 mins | Cooking time: 20 mins | Total time: 30 mins

Cuisine: Indian | Category: Snack/Breakfast

Ingredients:

8 slices Sandwich Bread(Wholewheat/Multigrain/Maida bread)

1/2 cup Cheese,grated

3/4 cup boiled Corn kernels

1.5 cups chopped Spinach

1 small Onion, finely chopped

2 Garlic cloves, finely chopped

1 tbsp All purpose flour(or wheat flour)

3/4 cup Milk

1 tsp Oregano(or Mixed Herbs)

1 tsp Red chili flakes

3/4 tsp Black/White Pepper powder

Salt, to taste

1 tbsp Olive oil or regular Oil

Butter, to spread

Method:

• In a kadai heat regular/olive oil and add finely chopped garlic and fry for half a minute and then add finely chopped onions and fry well until they turn translucent.

• Add chopped spinach and boiled corn kernels and fry for 4-5 minutes until the spinach wilts and gets cooked.
• Now sprinkle the flour(or wheat flour) all over the mixture and mix nicely and fry for a minute or two.

• Reduce the flame and add milk slowly by stirring continuously( to avoid the lumps formation) and continue cooking until the sauce thickens.You can add 1-2 tbsp cheese to the mixture and mix nicely.

• Add salt, pepper, chili flakes and oregano and mix nicely and cook until the mixture becomes thick.Switch off the flame and let the mixture cool.
• Apply Butter on one side of the bread and place 2-3 tbsp of stuffing and spread it nicely and sprinkle required amount of cheese and cover it with another butter sided bread slice and repeat the same for all the sandwiches.

• Heat an electric grill or Toaster or tawa and add some butter on the griller/toaster/tawa and place the prepared sandwiches and apply another layer of butter on top and close it and grill/toast it until it turns brown. If you are doing on tawa you can fry it on both sides by pressing it nicely with the spatula for uniform color.

Serve it hot with Tomato Sauce.

Notes:

1. The addition of cheese is optional as the white sauce itself is rich and creamy.
2. This can be prepared as open sandwich or toast, place the mixture on the buttered bread,baguette and sprinkle cheese on top and place it in preheated oven and bake it for 6-8 mins until the cheese melts.It makes a great party appetizer.
3. You can make Corn-Spinach Pasta by adding the boiled pasta to the same prepared mixture instead of making a sandwich.
4. You can make Spinach-Babycorn sandwich by replacing corn with finely chopped babycorn in the recipe.
