Cooking steps for Dahi Sandwich

  1. 1
    Dahi Sandwich is the perfect healthy, refreshing snack that combines creamy curd with crunchy fresh vegetables and aromatic herbs.
  2. 2
    This delightful dish is quick, easy to make, and satisfying, perfect for brunch or a light evening snack.
  3. 3
    Start by gathering your ingredients: ¼ cup finely chopped cabbage, ¼ cup tightly packed grated carrots, ¼ cup boiled or steamed corn kernels, 2 tablespoons finely chopped capsicum, and 2 tablespoons chopped spring onions or regular onion.
  4. 4
    Wash all the vegetables thoroughly for freshness.
  5. 5
    Chop or shred them into fine pieces using a knife, food chopper, or food processor.
  6. 6
    Mix the vegetables well so they're evenly distributed.
  7. 7
    Place them in a mixing bowl and set aside.
  8. 8
    Next, add ⅓ cup of curd (Greek yogurt, thick curd, or hung curd) to the vegetables.
  9. 9
    The curd will bring everything together, adding a creamy, tangy flavor.
  10. 10
    Season with ⅓ teaspoon of black pepper, or more according to your preference.
  11. 11
    For a flavor boost, add dried herbs like oregano, thyme, or basil—or mixed herbs if that's easier to find.
  12. 12
    If you like a little heat, add red chili flakes or finely chopped green chilies (depending on your spice level).
  13. 13
    Season the mixture with salt to balance the flavors.
  14. 14
    Mix all the ingredients thoroughly until everything is well-coated in the creamy curd.
  15. 15
    Now, grab 8 to 10 slices of your preferred bread—whole wheat, multigrain, or white bread work best.
  16. 16
    Spread a thin layer of butter on each slice to enhance flavor and help achieve that golden, crisp texture when grilled.
  17. 17
    Take a generous amount of the vegetable-curd mixture and spread it evenly over half of the bread slices.
  18. 18
    Top with the remaining buttered slices, buttered sides facing out.
  19. 19
    Heat a sandwich maker or grill to medium heat.
  20. 20
    Once hot, place the sandwiches inside and grill until they turn golden and crisp.
  21. 21
    The bread should develop a good crust, and the filling will warm up, enhancing its aroma.
  22. 22
    If you don't have a sandwich maker, use a skillet or tawa to grill the sandwiches on the stovetop.
  23. 23
    Press gently with a spatula for even toasting.
  24. 24
    Once grilled, place the sandwiches on plates and allow them to cool slightly.
  25. 25
    Cut into halves or quarters for easy serving.
  26. 26

FAQs

What kind of bread is suitable for a Dahi Sandwich?

For a Dahi Sandwich, soft, white bread, whole wheat, or multigrain bread can be used, whichever you like. The soft bread gives a pleasing texture and absorbs the dahi mixture well, making each bite delicious. You can even toast it lightly if you want a crispy texture in your Dahi Sandwich. As with any other sandwich, the choice of bread depends upon your dietary preference and the kind of flavour you want to associate with the yoghurt filling.

Is it possible to prepare the Dahi sandwich in advance?

You can prepare this Dahi sandwich early, but assembling it before serving will ensure it tastes its freshest. If you have to make it ahead, store your sandwich in a covered container in the refrigerator. To prevent the bread from becoming soggy from the yoghurt filling, let them come together just when you are ready to eat. That way, the bread will be crispy and delicious, too.

Can the filling of a Dahi sandwich be altered?

Absolutely! A Dahi sandwich is such a versatile beauty. Add assorted veggies like cucumber, tomato, and onion to the yoghurt filling to make it crunch and fresh. You can play with spices like cumin powder, black salt, or chilli powder for additional flavours. To add richness to its taste, you can add a chutney layer, perhaps mint or tamarind, to further enrich the sandwich. Feel free to get creative with your filling based on your preferences!
