Notes

Tips & Variations

    • Use brown or multigrain bread for healthier choices.
    • You can also replace maida (all-purpose flour) with wheat flour or cornflour.
    • Toast the bread on tawa or use a sandwich maker or grill to golden and crisp.
    • Always add chilled/cold milk so you won’t get any lumps of the flour.
    • I have used only mozzarella cheese for this recipe but the combination of mozzarella cheese and cheddar cheese can be used. If you do not have mozzarella cheese use processed cheese or grated paneer.
    • You can also add onions while sauteing but this is completely optional.
    • If you are vegan skip mozzarella or use vegan cheese. Replace butter with oil.
    • Add more or less spinach or cheese according to your preference for this palak corn sandwich.
