A brief history of the sandwich

Although the term 'sandwich' originated in the 18th century, the concept of putting stuffing between two slices of bread dates back much earlier. Similar dishes can be found in different cultures, but today we're focusing on a delicious version, served in a pasty. Lipia is a type of flatbread, popular in many parts of the world, which goes perfectly with our ingredients.

Ingredients

- 2 lipias
- 4 slices of ham
- 4 slices Delaco cheese
- 1 small onion
- A few slices of cucumber
- 1-2 tomatoes
- 2 lettuce leaves
- 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
- Ketchup to taste

Utensils needed

- Frying pan
- Knife
- Chopper
- Spoon
- Plate

Step by step - Sandwich preparation

1. Preparing the ingredients
Start by peeling the onion. Cut them into thin slices so that they fit easily into the sandwich. Then wash the cucumber and tomatoes. Cut the cucumber into thin slices and the tomatoes into matching slices, which will add freshness to the dish.

2. Warming the leeks
Lightly heat a frying pan over medium heat. The leeks will be more flavorful and tender when gently heated. You can wrap them in a clean towel after removing them from the pan to keep them warm.

3. Sandwich assembly
Place the leeks on a platter and spread evenly with a tablespoon of mayonnaise. The mayonnaise will not only provide a creamy flavor, but will also help hold the filling in place.
Now add a few fried potatoes, which will add a crunchy, savory texture. Then put two slices of ham, followed by two slices of Delaco cheese, which will melt a little due to the heat, giving an even better flavor.
Add the onion rings, cucumber slices and tomatoes, topping with ketchup to taste. Don't forget the two lettuce leaves! These will add a splash of freshness and a nice contrast.

4. Dividing and serving
Now it's time to fold the leek. You can choose to roll it tightly or fold it in half, depending on your preference. Cut the sandwich in half to make it easier to savor. Serve immediately to enjoy the freshness of the ingredients.

Useful tips

- Ingredient variations: Feel free to experiment! You can replace the ham with chicken or turkey, and the cheese with feta or mozzarella. You can also add avocado or olives for extra flavor.
- For extra flavor: Add spices like black pepper or sweet paprika to the mayonnaise to give it a more intense flavor.
- Drink with: This sandwich goes great with a fresh fruit juice or a light beer, which will complement the taste of the ingredients.

Nutritional benefits

This sandwich on a stick is a good source of protein from the ham and cheese, and the fresh vegetables provide essential vitamins to the body. The fries add carbohydrates, providing the energy needed for an active day. All in all, it's a balanced and filling dish, ideal for lunch or dinner.
