How to cook Trout and Cream Cheese Sandwiches

Step 1

Cut the fish into thin slices. Cut the cucumber into thin, wide slices. Chop the greens: you can use dill, parsley, cilantro.

Step 2

Cut white bread into medium-sized pieces. Spread each piece with cream cheese. Do not skimp on the cheese to make a good, even layer, so that the sandwich does not turn out dry in consistency.

Step 3

Place cucumbers on top of the cheese, then slices of red fish.

Step 4

Place the finished sandwiches on a serving plate and sprinkle with chopped herbs.

You can use mascarpone, ricotta, or even a thick Greek yogurt spread as a substitute for cream cheese.

Store the assembled sandwiches in an airtight container for up to 24 hours. For longer storage, keep ingredients separate and assemble just before serving.

Are there any vegetarian alternatives for this recipe?

For a vegetarian version, replace the trout with avocado slices or marinated tofu for a creamy, protein-rich alternative.

Freezing is not recommended as the texture of the cream cheese and cucumbers may change upon thawing. It’s best enjoyed fresh.

How can I prevent the bread from getting soggy?

Lightly toast the bread before spreading the cream cheese to create a barrier against moisture from the cucumbers and fish.

Can I add other toppings to these sandwiches?
