Yogurt Sandwich Recipe | Hung Curd Sandwich

4 from 1 vote

Yoghurt sandwich is a delicious and healthy sandwich made with a filling of creamy and refreshing yogurt or hung curd along with crunchy vegetables and some spices. This sandwich can be enjoyed as a breakfast or a snack.

Yogurt sandwich is very easy to prepare and can be a quick and convenient option for a light meal. The sandwich is suitable for various dietary preferences, including vegetarian diets.

While yogurt is used as the base for the filling, there are endless possibilities for adding vegetables, fruits, nuts, and other toppings to create a customized sandwich to suit your taste preferences.

How to make hung curd?

Hung curd is made by straining all the water and whey out of plain yogurt. It is thick and creamy as a result. You can but greek yogurt and use that in the recipe, or you can prepare hung curd at home.

To make hung curd at home wrap plain yogurt in a muslin cloth and tie it. Then hang it for a few hours or keep it pressed under something heavy to strain the water out of it.

Some handy tips for making this recipe

Below I have listed down a few things to keep in mind while preparing this recipe –

  • It is important to choose the right bread that complements the yogurt filling well. White bread, whole wheat or multigrain bread works well with this sandwich. You can also go with soft breads like pita.
  • You need to use thick creamy yogurt for this recipe. If not making hung curd at home, greek yogurt works best.
  • You can add 2 spoons of mayonnaise to the sandwich as well for a slightly sour taste.
  • I have added vegetables like onion, capsicum, carrot and corn to this sandwich. You can add other vegetables like cabbage, broccoli, cucumber etc as well.
  • It’s best to apply the filling to the sandwich and consume it as soon as possible, otherwise the vegetables will start leaving water and the sandwich will become soggy.

Nutritional info & ways to enhance it

A yogurt sandwich provides a balance of nutrients, including carbohydrates from the bread, protein from the yogurt, and vitamins and minerals from the veggies.

  • Yogurt is a good source of protein, which is essential for building and repairing tissues, supporting immune function, and maintaining healthy skin, hair, and nails.
  • Yogurt is also rich in calcium, a mineral that supports strong bones and teeth. It is a good source of probiotics, which are good bacteria that can help improve gut health.
  • Yogurt is generally well-tolerated and easy to digest, making it a suitable option for people with sensitive stomachs.
  • You can opt for low-fat or Greek yogurt varieties and reduce the overall fat content of the sandwich while still enjoying the creaminess and flavor.
  • These sandwiches are a good source of fiber, which can help keep you feeling full and consume less calories overall.
  • The addition of healthy vegetables like carrots, capsicum, corn etc enhance the nutrition of the dish and add valuable minerals, vitamins and fiber.
  • You can also use multi grain or whole wheat bread instead of using white bread to make a healthier dish.

Serving Suggestions

Assemble this sandwich just before serving, to prevent the bread from becoming soggy. You can cut it into halves or quarters for ease of handling and presentation.

A bowl of fresh cut fruit pairs well with the sandwich for breakfast. If served for lunch or dinner, consider pairing it with a warm soup.
