Simple to prepare. Par boil 1 1/2 cups of chopped spinach for 3 mts. Strain the water completely and keep aside. Heat a tbsp of butter in a pan, add a tbsp of all purpose flour/maida and saute for 3 mts. Add a cup of milk and go on stirring till there are no lumps, approx 5 mts. Add 2 tbsps of grated cheese (I used Amul cheese cube) and pinch of salt and black pepper pwd to season. Combine. Add the boiled spinach and combine and turn off heat.

Apply butter on two slices of bread (on one side) and spread this spinach filling all over on one slice, place the other bread slice and toast till golden. Serve warm.

You can add grated carrot and boiled sweet corn too at the time of adding the spinach to the sauce.

    nice recipe! looks yummy. the spinach part is similar to a recipe in the states for “creamed spinach,” which is usually eaten as a side dish. this looks way better though. :)

  10. sailu on March 23rd, 2010 at 2:20 am:

    Yes, you can use corn flour. But all purpose flour works best.
