   Homemade  Spinach Corn                   Sandwich Recipe

      

  Spinach corn a grilled sandwich with creamy, cheesy filling made from boiled corn kernels and chopped spinach.  

                     

The procedure of making corn and spinach mixture is really easy and it is made in one step only. First boiled corn and chopped spinach is sauteed with all-purpose flour. Then the milk is added and simmered till the mixture gets thick. Lastly season with salt, pepper, and chili flakes.

Here I have added very less cheese because the buttery white sauce is already enough creamy. But hubby prefers more cheesy and creamy, so only in his sandwich, I have sprinkled more cheese after spreading the mixture on the bread slice.

How To Make Spinach Corn Sandwich Recipe

  1.)   Boil the corn in a pressure cooker. Once cool to touch, separate the kernels. Or use canned corn kernels, do drain the liquid well. Or you can use frozen corn kernels.

 2).   Also, chop the garlic and spinach. Prep rest of the ingredients for making filling.

3).     Heat the butter in a pan on medium heat.

 4)    Once it is melted, add chopped garlic. Saute for a minute or till the raw smell of garlic goes away.

5) Then add boiled corn kernels.

6) Stir well and cook for 2 minutes.

7) Then add chopped spinach leaves.

8)  Mix well and saute.

9) Cook for a couple of minutes, spinach leaves will get wilted very soon.

10) Then sprinkle all-purpose flour.

11) Cook with stirring constantly for 1-2 minutes.

12) Now add milk. Always use milk from the refrigerator, so you won’t get any lumps of flour.

13) Mix well.

14) Let the milk come to a boil.

15) And let it simmer till it gets thick. Do stir occasionally.

16) The mixture should be really thick like a paste. If it is runny then the sandwich will get soggy, soft quickly.

17) Once it gets thick, add salt, pepper, and red chili flakes. Mix well.

18) Also add cheese. Here I have added very less cheese, you can add more.

19) Stir well and turn off the stove.

20) Remove the mixture to a bowl, so it gets cool faster.

21) For making sandwiches, take sandwich bread slices.

22) Spread the creamy spinach corn mixture on one slice.

23) Cover it with another slice of bread. Do the same with the next sandwich.

24) Heat the grill pan on medium heat. You can use a grill plate in your sandwich machine or grill machine. Alternately you can make on nonstick pan (now low heat to get crispy bread) or sandwich toaster.

25) Apply little butter spread on the top of the bread slice.

26) Once the pan is hot, put the buttered side down. while cooking slightly press with a spatula (don’t give too much pressure).

27) While the bottom side is cooking, apply butter on this side of the slice as well. This butter will help to crisp up the bread.

28) Flip it very carefully and grill the other side as well.

29) Remove it to a plate and slice it using a sharp knife.

You can slice into a triangle shape as well. Serve the sandwiches hot/warm. As they seat, the grilled crust will start to soften and the sandwich will become soggy.

At home, any kind of sandwiches is our favorite. We usually have sandwiches as such as a light meal. Or sometimes I serve them with a bowl of soup. Since it is the winter season, I made along with this spinach corn sandwich.
