Sandwich Filling Ingredients- 2 medium potatoes
- 3 eggs
- 5 Tbsp canned corn kernels
- 1 pinch of salt
- 1 Tbsp sugar
- 6 Tbsp mayonnaise
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, let’s prepare the potatoes, the star of our sandwich. Peel the potatoes and cut them into large chunks. Place them in a pot and cover with water. Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce to medium heat and simmer for about 15-20 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender when pierced with a fork. It’s important to drain the cooked potatoes thoroughly so they aren’t watery.
Step 2
Transfer the hot, drained potatoes to a bowl. Use a fork to mash them until smooth and creamy. Ensure there are no large lumps for the best sandwich texture. Set the mashed potatoes aside to cool slightly. Mixing them while too hot can make the filling gummy.
Step 3
Now, let’s boil the eggs that will add richness to our sandwich. Fill a pot with water, add a pinch of salt to prevent cracking, and gently place the eggs in. Once the water comes to a boil, cook for about 10 minutes to achieve hard-boiled eggs. After boiling, immediately transfer the eggs to an ice bath to cool, then peel them carefully.
Step 4
Mash the peeled hard-boiled eggs using a fork, just like the potatoes. Add the mashed eggs to the bowl with the mashed potatoes. Combining these two ingredients will create a wonderfully creamy and substantial sandwich filling.
Step 5
It’s time to add some texture and sweetness with corn kernels. Drain the canned corn thoroughly. Add about 5 tablespoons of corn to the potato and egg mixture. Feel free to add a little more if you enjoy a more pronounced corn flavor. The popping sensation of the corn kernels will make the sandwich even more exciting.
Step 6
Now, let’s season our filling. Add a pinch of salt to enhance the natural flavors of the ingredients.
Step 7
For a touch of sweetness, stir in 1 tablespoon of sugar. This will complement the sweetness of the corn and create a balanced flavor profile.
Step 8
Finally, add 6 tablespoons of mayonnaise for a smooth, rich, and creamy texture. Gently mix all the ingredients together using a spatula or spoon until well combined and a creamy salad forms. Ensure everything is evenly distributed for a consistent flavor in every bite.
Step 9
Prepare your bread slices for the sandwich. Spread a thin layer of honey on one side of each slice. You can substitute honey with your favorite jam, like strawberry or raspberry, for a different sweet note. You can trim the crusts if you prefer, or leave them on.
Step 10
Generously spoon the mashed potato and egg salad onto the honey-coated side of the bread slices. Don’t spread it too thinly; pile it up for a more substantial and visually appealing sandwich.
Step 11
Place the remaining bread slices on top to complete your delicious mashed potato and egg sandwich! Gently press down on the sandwich to help the layers meld together.
Step 12
Carefully cut the finished sandwich in half to reveal the beautiful cross-section. The layers of mashed potato, egg, and corn should look appealing. Use a gentle sawing motion with a sharp knife to avoid crushing the bread.
Step 13
Arrange the neatly cut sandwiches on a plate. They make a wonderful breakfast or brunch option.
Step 14
Finish your sandwich with a sprinkle of dried parsley for an extra touch of color and a subtle herbal aroma. It adds a lovely visual appeal.
Step 15
Enjoy this simple yet incredibly satisfying mashed potato and egg sandwich! It’s a perfect way to start your day with a hearty and delicious meal. Enjoy your homemade creation!
