Cheesy Corn Spinach Sandwich

"Cheesy Corn Spinach Sandwich" a quick, easy, delicious and healthy breakfast. Having a  picky toddler at home, my mind always revolves around the choices, which are good in taste and nutritious as well. This sandwich recipe has the goodness of spinach and corn, and the cheesy delight makes a perfect combination to taste. So let's start to toast this yummy sandwich with "Flavors of Sneha's Kitchen"



Ingredients
1 cup sweet corn kernels
1 cup chopped spinach leaves
4 tbsp of white sauce (recipe for white sauce is in tips section)
1 tbsp shredded cheddar cheese
1 tbsp of shredded mozzarella cheese
4 slices of bread
1 tbsp of olive oil
1 tsp of cayenne pepper
1 tsp of garlic powder
1 tsp of oregano leaves or mixed herbs
1 tsp of black pepper powder
Salt to taste
Butter to toast the sandwiches



Method:

In a hot saucepan, add olive oil. Once heated, add sweet corn and toss for 1 minute on medium flame.

Now add chopped spinach leaves and again saute for 1-2 minutes.

Now add cayenne pepper, black pepper, garlic powder, oregano leaves and salt. Mix well and saute for 1 minute.

Now keep it on low flame and add the white sauce. Mix well.

Add cheddar and mozzarella cheese and keep mixing on low flame until the cheese melts.

Take it out in a bowl.

Now, spread an even layer of this mixture on bread. And spread some butter on another bread.

Toast the sandwiches on medium flame until both sides get golden brown.

Cut it in triangular shapes and serve immediately.

Tips: 

  • To make the white sauce, heat 2 tbsp of butter in a pan. Now add 1 tbsp of all purpose flour. With the help of whisker, keep mixing it on a low flame for 2-3 mnts. Now slowly keep adding half cup of milk and keep stirring to avoid forming any lumps. Add salt and black pepper to taste. Keep mixing until you get a thick texture. White sauce is ready to use. You may always use store bought white pasta sauce, if don't want to make this at home.
  • You can use tinned/canned corn instead of fresh corn. Here, I have used fresh sweet corn kernels and steamed them for 15 mnts but even regular corn would also taste good.
  • You can mix some basil leaves also, to make it more tasty and aromatic. For some hot kick, add little bit of chilli flakes. Avoid using it, if you are making for kids.
  • You can add more cheese to make it even more cheesy. Choice is yours :)
