How to Make Hung Curd for the Curd Sandwich
The hung curd is very easy to make. I hang the fresh curd in a muslin cloth until all its water is drained. Water drains And I am left with creamy textured curd which is very thick. The hung curd is also known as curd cheese. Alternatively, you can use greek yogurt in place of fresh curd.
For making this hung curd sandwich, I throw in finely chopped veggies in the hung curd. You can make curd and cabbage sandwich, you can make curd and cucumber sandwich or go with capsicum like me and make curd and capsicum sandwich. Season the curd sandwich spread and toast the sandwich in a sandwich toaster grill or over a griddle with some butter.
You can use brown bread and olive oil for making curd sandwich recipe if you want a healthier option instead of white bread and butter. I have used cheese which again is optional and you can use any type of cheese like slices or spread, I used a mix of sharp cheddar cheese and light cheddar cheese.
The flavors are inspired by Popular Dahi ke Sholey recipe which is popular officer mess recipe and well liked by my readers
