Ingredients
- 4 Whole grain bread slices
- 120 grams Cream cheese
- 1 small Cucumber
- 1 medium Carrot
- 1 tablespoon Fresh dill
- 1 tablespoon Chives
- 0.5 teaspoon Red chili flakes
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 2 tablespoons Butter
Directions
Step 1
Start by finely chopping the cucumber and grating the carrot. Set both aside for assembling the sandwich.
Step 2
In a medium bowl, combine the cream cheese, fresh dill, chives, red chili flakes, black pepper, and salt. Mix until all ingredients are well incorporated.
Step 3
Spread the cream cheese mixture evenly on one side of each of the 4 slices of bread.
Step 4
Distribute the chopped cucumber and grated carrot across two of the slices, on top of the cream cheese layer.
Step 5
Place the remaining slices of bread, cream cheese side down, on top of the cucumber and carrot layers to form two sandwiches.
Step 6
Heat a skillet over medium heat and melt 1 tablespoon of butter. Place one sandwich in the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and crispy. Repeat with the second sandwich, adding more butter if needed.
Step 7
Remove the sandwiches from the skillet and let them cool slightly before slicing them in halves or quarters, as desired.
Step 8
Serve warm and enjoy this flavorful variation of a cream cheese sandwich!
