Ingredients

  • 1 zucchini medium-sized
  • ½ cup carrots grated
  • cup onion chopped
  • 1 teaspoon garlic finely chopped
  • ½ teaspoon thyme dried
  • 4 bread slices
  • 2 tablespoon cashew sauce
  • ½ tablespoon oil
  • Black pepper powder
  • Salt to taste

Instructions

Make the filling

  • Heat a saute pan and add oil, finely chopped onion, garlic, and dried thyme. Let it cook for a couple of minutes.
  • Now add chopped zucchini and cook it on high flame for two or three minutes.
  • Season the zucchini with freshly ground black pepper and salt. Salt will release the water from the zucchini. Stir everything well.
  • Then goes the shredded carrots and mix them once. And let the carrots zucchini mixture cook on high flame for around 2 to 3 minutes.
  • Switch off the flame and keep this zucchini mixture aside.

Prep the bread

  • Spread the bread slices, apply butter and toast them in the oven for about 10 minutes at 180 degrees C. Time and temperature depend on the oven. We want to toast the bread lightly, so keep an eye on the bread.
  • Alternatively, you can pan-fry the bread or toast them using the bread toaster.

Assemble the sandwich

  • Take the bread and apply the cashew cheese sauce. You can also use cilantro chutney or basil pesto as the sandwich spread.
  • Now take the zucchini mixture and spread it over the bread. I like to serve these as an open sandwich.
  • You could cover the sandwich with another bread slice and serve it.
  • If you are not toasting the bread in the above step, you can grill the sandwich using a bread toaster.
  • The delicious and easy zucchini sandwich is ready to serve!
