Do you love sandwiches? I do and like most of the folks, I always love to make them. Simple sandwiches made with the most staple vegetables available in our fridge and pantry turn out delicious all the time. At my home we prefer simple sandwiches made of cucumber, tomato, and onion. They taste so fresh that on a summer morning for breakfast, it’s a treat. Sometimes I make the most delicious Spinach Corn Sandwich , which are just so fun to eat. Cheesy, creamy, and crispy, a perfect combination of all the textures, I serve them with my Gnocchi Tomato Soup. In India, masala sandwiches and chutney sandwiches are quite popular. Street food vendors often make them so delicious that you will find them busy making hundreds of these sandwiches a day. I do love them and the fact is variation is the key to sandwich making. Whoever discovered them made our life so easy and fun. In this recipe, I tried to keep this simple, healthy and minimal. A simple filling of broccoli and green peas mince along with some garlic, cheese and spices are filled between the two slices of lightly buttered bread. I have used an air fryer for making this sandwich in order to save time and to make it extra crispy. It is amazing how crispy it is. Once you try it yourself, I bet you will not go back to your sandwich maker again.
Why Air Fryer Sandwich?
Making food in the air fryer is super easy and healthy. Nowadays I am experimenting with lots of food and their cooking process in the air fryers. It’s quick so it cuts down the cooking time significantly and on top of that uses little or no oil. This has brought a revolution to our kitchen.
What Ingredients Do You Use in This Recipe?
Bread- Any type of bread, whatever you like. I love to use multi-grain, whole wheat, or some sometimes even white bread. Green Peas- Frozen green peas work the best in this recipe. Broccoli- I have used fresh broccoli in this recipe but I don’t see why you can’t use frozen ones. Cheese- Any vegan shredded cheese of your choice or if you do not have any restrictions use any cheese of your choice. Sometimes I like to use a blend of different types of cheese. Garlic- If you are a regular here you know how much I love garlic. Garlic makes everything better. Salt and Pepper- Red Pepper Flakes- A little kick is important for a delicious sandwich filling. However, if you don’t want to, just skip it. Butter- Any vegan butter works well. Olive Oil- We need a little bit of oil for cooking the stuffing, however, if you want to make this oil-free don’t cook the filling. Use it as it is after blanching.
