How to Make Yogurt Tempered Sandwich
Ingredients:
- 1 cup curd
- ½ onion (chopped)
- 1 tsp green chilli (chopped)
- 1 tbsp coriander (chopped)
- ½ tsp salt
- ½ tsp oregano
- 4 bread slices (brown)
- 1 tbsp oil
- 1 tsp mustard seeds
- 8 curry leaves
Directions:
- Firstly, take a bowl and place a sieve over it. Put a muslin cloth and add 1 cup curd to it.
- Put some weight on top until all the extra water is drained out. After a few hours, the hung curd is ready. Transfer it to a bowl.
- Add ½ chopped onion, 1 tsp chopped green chilli, 1 tbsp chopped coriander, ½ tsp salt, and ½ tsp oregano to the hung curd. Mix everything well.
- Take 4 brown bread slices.
- Spread the prepared mixture over one slice of bread and cover it with another slice. Repeat this with the remaining slices.
- For tadka, heat a tawa and add 1 tbsp oil, 1 tsp mustard seeds, and 8 curry leaves.
- Keep the flame on medium and place the assembled sandwiches over the tawa. Roast them until golden brown and crispy.
- Apply oil on top and flip the sandwiches. Roast them from the other side too.
- Once they are cooked perfectly on both sides, remove them from the tawa.
- Cut the sandwiches in the center to divide them into two equal parts.
- Finally, enjoy your dahi tadka sandwich with green chutney and tomato ketchup.
How to Serve Yogurt Tempered Sandwich
Serve the Yogurt Tempered Sandwich warm with a side of green chutney and tomato ketchup. This adds a nice tangy flavor that complements the creamy filling perfectly.
How to Store Yogurt Tempered Sandwich
To store any leftovers, wrap the sandwiches tightly in plastic wrap or place them in an airtight container. They can be kept in the refrigerator for up to a day. Reheat them on a tawa before serving to bring back their crispiness.
Tips to Make Yogurt Tempered Sandwich
- Ensure that the curd is well-drained; this will help the mixture stay together in the sandwich.
