Corn and spinach sandwich

  Preparation Time : 15 mins | Cooking Time : 20 Mins |Serves: 3

     Bread slices        8
     Sweet corn *      1/2 cup
     Spinach          1/2 cup (finely chopped)
     Grated Cheese    1/4 cup
     Butter     1 tsp + to spread on the bread
     Maida | all purpose flour   2 tsp
     Milk     1/2 cup
     Salt      to taste
     Red chili flakes    to taste
     Oregano | pepper    to taste  
     Oil    1 tsp   
* I cooked the corn in pressure cooker and took the kernels out. If you are using frozen corn, just thaw it for 10 minutes and use.     
     

Method:

• In a pan add oil and add the corn kernels and saute for a minute, add the spinach to this and cook for a minute.  Add salt, red chili flakes , oregano or pepper powder to taste.
• Cook for a minute and put off the flame.

• In the same pan, add butter and add int the maida flour also. Saute in a low flame till the butter and the flour gets nicely incorporated. 
• Add the milk and cook it in a low flame without getting any lumps. 

• It will take 2 minutes for you to get a nice paste. Put off the flame and add it to the cooked corn and spinach mixture.

• Add the cheese to this and mix well.

• You can either do in the tawa or in the sandwich grill too.
• Spread butter on the bread and spread the filling in one side of the bread. Top it with another bread and cook in a sandwich maker or tawa till the top portions become nice golden brown.

• If you want you can serve them by cutting this into triangles.

• Serve this hot .

Notes:

1. Instead of oregano and red chili flakes you can add finely chopped green chili and chaat masala too.
2. You can skip the step of adding the maida white sauce too. Just cook the corn and spinach and add the grated cheese and go ahead.
3. If the top portions need to browned nicely add butter nicely.
