This sandwich was really just a quick lunch-snack to keep us going through a long day of yard work. Putting down the gloves after weeding the tomato garden we found a bit of leftover grilled salmon from the night before, some veggies, and voila, a sandwich was born. When I grew up in Denmark, my mother tended to make the same sandwiches day after day. Liver pate sandwich, potato sandwich, Russian salad sandwich, chocolate sandwich (dessert). Rinse, repeat. Now, with this blog, we have made literally hundreds of different sandwiches, and I wonder what my childhood would have been like with that kind of variety. It’s so easy to have fun with sandwiches, so don’t get stuck in the same humdrum, live a little 🙂
Recipe
Ingredients
- 1 slice of white bread
- enough grilled salmon to cover the bread
- two thin slices of radish
- 3-4 blanched fava beans
- 1 sliver of Parmesan cheese
- 1 tbs lemon juice
- puff of ground pepper
- 5 leaves of cilantro
Finely chop the cilantro and mix it with the lemon juice. Finely cut 2-3 sliced of radish and rub the lemon/cilantro mix over it. Place the beans in the lemon/cilantro mix, and let it sit for 5 minutes. Meanwhile, heat your salmon gently in your microwave until it’s warm. Place it on the bread. Lay out the radish and fava beans on top, and grind a puff of pepper on top. Finally garnish with a slice of Parmesan cheese.
