Yogurt sandwich

This is one of those unique items which you will not even think about. But once you find the recipe, you have to make and let me tell you up front, one you eat it, you will not regret it. It is great.

The yogurt filling for the sandwich is very similar in texture to the cream cheese. And when you toast the bread with the filling and eat it hot on a cold day...nothing beats that.

Ingredients:

1. 6 slices of your favorite bread...Sourdough or whole wheat bread are my fav)
2. 2 cup yogurt squeezed of as much water a possible...hung curd
3. 1/4 cup each of finely grated carrot, cabbage, capsicum
4. 1 tablespoon finely chopped red onion
5. 1/2 teaspoon  of salt
6. pinch of fresh ground black pepper
7. if you like spice include 1/2 teaspoon finely minced green chillies
8. Butter for toasting the bread sandwiches

Get the hung curd and mix it with all the veggies and salt and pepper. Lay 3 slices of bread and divide the mixture among the three. Top it with cucumber and tomato if desired. 

Heat a griddle and add a little butter and toast the sandwiches to a golden brown on both sides. Enjoy

NOTE: my yogurt cream here looks pink, because I used purple cabbage

Another variation to add more protein to is is... add about 1-2 tablespoons of canned drained black beans to the sandwich.

Those black beans take it to a whole new level

Cinema Hall Cucumber Sandwich

The other day me and my cousin were getting nostalgic and where talking about the cinema halls in India. How it used to be such a treat to go to the movies with friends and all. And the food. When it came to the food we both we thinking of the same thing. The vegetarian cucumber sandwich which used to be available only in the cinema theaters. And MAN it used to be good.

So I went on a hunt to find the ingredients of the sandwich, the main one being the green chutney. When I went to the Indian store I found a mango-mint chutney instead of the usual mint chutney and I got it. And I made the sandwich and it brought about such fond memories.
