Grilled Corn and Spinach Sandwich
This is an oft-repeated sandwich that we make at home. Especially during the lockdown, it was (IS) difficult to keep kids satiated. This sandwich comes very handy as its made with everyday ingredients with a smooth and silky wheatflhour-based white sauce- pretty much all the ingredients that go into a healthy sandwich.

As with other sandwiches, this one too came about for the kids primarily, but surprise surprise, the non-bread eater of the house - the spouse- also loved it a lot. I make the filling in slightly larger quantities, and the same can be used to make white pasta, with just a few added ingredients.

Can I make this Grilled Corn and Spinach Sandwich vegan?
I have used whole milk for the white sauce, but if you are vegan , you can use almond / plant based milk. I have also made this sandwich without any cheese as the white sauce itself was super creamy. But if you are a fan of cheese, do add it (and adjust salt accordingly).

Kalyani this sandwich brings back some good memories. The first time I ever tasted grilled corn and spinach cheese sandwich was in India when the CCDs opened up first in India. I fell in love with the whole taste. Now I can follow your recipe to make it at home. Surprisingly not many cafes here make this delicious sandwich.
Kalyani says
