Main Ingredients
- 2 slices of bread
- 1/2 cucumber
- 2 Tbsp cream cheese
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, prepare your bread slices. Toast them lightly in a frying pan or a toaster until they are golden brown and slightly crispy. This adds a wonderful texture. It’s best to use them while still warm.
Step 2
Wash the cucumber thoroughly under running water. Using a peeler, thinly shave the cucumber. This will make it softer and more pleasant to eat. Prepare by slicing thinly.
Step 3
Spread the prepared cream cheese evenly onto one side of the toasted bread. Since this is the base of your sandwich, don’t be shy with the cream cheese – a generous amount will enhance the flavor.
Step 4
Arrange the thinly shaved cucumber slices overlapping each other on top of the cream cheese-covered bread, ensuring there are no gaps. Layering the cucumber this way adds a satisfying bite and ensures a moist sandwich.
Step 5
Lightly sprinkle a pinch of salt and black pepper over the cucumber, according to your preference. This enhances the refreshing taste of the cucumber and complements the cream cheese, balancing the flavors.
Step 6
Place the second slice of bread on top to complete the sandwich. Gently press down with your hands to secure the layers. Then, cut the sandwich into your desired serving size (usually in half or quarters) for a beautifully presented and easy-to-eat cream cheese cucumber sandwich.
