2. My mom always adds curd to aviyal just before serving, so that you can avoid getting the sour taste.

3. Do not grind the coconut mixture into a fine paste. Just pulse it twice and add.
4. You can add raw mango too, if adding skip the yogurt.

Corn and spinach sandwich

Corn and spinach sandwich, Spinach corn sandwich- No onion no garlic sandwich recipe with full video and step-by-step pictures.

Sandwich comes super handy when we run out of idli dosa batter. My family loves sandwiches, and I have posted many recipes in Jeyashris kitchen. This one is a no onion no garlic sandwich recipe made using the winning combo of spinach and corn, also I have added capsicum to enhance the taste.

You can make this easy sandwich recipe, with the ingredients available at home. As we are not using onion or garlic, chopping reduces significantly. The filling is like a thicker version of the white sauce we make for pasta. If you want to add garlic you can add while sauting the corn and making the sauce too.

Corn and spinach sandwich can be served for breakfast, packed for kid’s lunch box, or served as an evening snack. Even you can make this for a quick weeknight dinner along with a soup.
