Instructions
-
Prepare the Vegetables: Start by heating a drizzle of sunflower oil in a saucepan over medium heat. Once hot, add the finely chopped garlic, allowing it to sauté until it turns golden and fragrant, which should take about a minute.
-
Cook the Broccoli: Next, incorporate the minced broccoli into the pan. Sauté the mixture for about 5–7 minutes until the broccoli becomes tender but remains vibrant in color—be cautious not to overcook it, as this will diminish its nutritional value.
-
Combine Ingredients: Once the broccoli is cooked, remove the pan from heat and let it cool for a few minutes. In a mixing bowl, combine the sautéed broccoli with crumbled paneer, eggless mayonnaise, and red chilli sauce. Stir until all ingredients are well incorporated.
-
Assemble the Sandwich: Take your slices of whole wheat bread and spread butter on one side of each slice. Place a generous amount of the broccoli-paneer filling on the non-buttered side of one slice. Top with another slice of bread, butter side up, to complete the sandwich.
-
Toast the Sandwich: You can use a sandwich maker or a skillet to toast the sandwich. If using a skillet, heat it over medium heat and add a little sunflower oil or butter. Place the sandwich on the skillet and cook until it turns golden brown and crispy on both sides, usually about 3–4 minutes per side.
-
Serve and Enjoy: Once toasted, remove the sandwich from the heat and slice it in half if desired. Serve your delicious Broccoli Paneer Mayo Sandwich with a refreshing Banana Almond & Prunes Smoothie for a complete and nutritious breakfast experience.
