Ingredients
Scale
Veg Mayo Sandwich
- 6 slices whole wheat or multigrain bread
- 1 cup mixed vegetables (carrot, capsicum, cucumber, and boiled potatoes), finely chopped
- 6 tablespoons mayonnaise
- Salt and black pepper to taste
Steamed Corn
- 1 cup corn kernels
- 1 tablespoon butter
- Salt to taste
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon chaat masala or seasoning of choice
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley or coriander leaves, finely chopped
Apple Slices
- 1 medium apple, thinly sliced
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice (for drizzling)
Instructions
- Prepare the Sandwich Filling: In a mixing bowl, combine the finely chopped mixed vegetables with 6 tablespoons of mayonnaise. Season with salt and black pepper to taste. Mix well until all vegetables are evenly coated with mayo, creating a creamy and flavorful filling.
- Assemble the Veg Mayo Sandwich: Take a slice of bread and spread a generous amount of the vegetable mayo filling evenly over it. Place another slice of bread on top to cover the filling. Repeat this process to make a total of 3 sandwiches. Optionally, trim the edges and cut the sandwiches into triangles or squares for neat presentation.
- Prepare Steamed Corn: In a saucepan, melt 1 tablespoon of butter over medium heat. Add the corn kernels and sauté for about 2 to 3 minutes until tender and slightly warmed through. Season the sautéed corn with salt, lemon juice, and chaat masala to enhance the flavor. Stir in the finely chopped parsley or coriander leaves for a fresh herbal note.
- Prepare the Apple Slices: Core and thinly slice the apple. To prevent the slices from browning, drizzle them lightly with lemon juice and toss gently to coat each slice evenly.
- Serve: Arrange the Veg Mayo Sandwiches on a serving platter. Place the sautéed corn and the lemon-drizzled apple slices alongside as refreshing side accompaniments, creating a balanced and colorful meal.
Notes
- Use fresh and crisp vegetables for the sandwich filling to maintain texture.
- You can substitute mayonnaise with a vegan mayo to make the sandwich vegan-friendly.
- Steaming the corn lightly before sautéing can be done for a more tender texture.
- Adjust seasoning like chaat masala according to your taste preference.
- Lemon juice on apple slices prevents oxidation, keeping them fresh and visually appealing.
- This sandwich is best eaten fresh to avoid bread sogginess.
