Necessary ingredients
- 200 g sweet Bulgarian cheese
- 100 g thick sour cream
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1 teaspoon cumin (seeds)
- 1 teaspoon dried dill
- 1/2 teaspoon hot paprika (optional)
- 1/2 teaspoon salt (or to taste)
- 4 large slices of country bread (can also be toasted)
- 200 g cherry tomatoes (sliced)
- 2-3 green onions (sliced)
- 2-3 tablespoons olive oil (for drizzling)
- Large olives (Mammoth variety, for serving)
Step by step for a perfect sandwich
1. Preparing the spiced cheese
In a bowl, add the sweet Bulgarian cheese and sour cream. Use a kitchen mixer or food processor to blend the mixture well. This will ensure a smooth texture, making your sandwiches delicious.
2. Adding the spices
Once the cheese is well mixed, add salt, thyme, dill, and, if you want a bit of spice, hot paprika. Mix everything well to combine the flavors.
3. Preparing the cumin
In a dry pan, heat the cumin seeds for about 1 minute, until they start to release their aroma. Then, chop them finely with a knife or crush them with a mortar. Add the cumin seeds to the cheese mixture and blend again.
4. Assembling the sandwiches
On each slice of country bread (which can be fresh or toasted, depending on your preference), spread a generous layer of spiced cheese. Arrange the sliced cherry tomatoes on top, cut into rounds, and sprinkle the green onion strips.
5. Finalizing the dish
Drizzle each sandwich with a bit of olive oil for added flavor and an appetizing appearance. Add a few large Mammoth olives on the side for a contrast of textures and flavors.
Serving suggestions
These sandwiches are perfect for breakfast but can also be served as a snack during the day. Offer them alongside a fragrant green tea or freshly squeezed orange juice for a refreshing meal.
