Clare Latimer's recipe for
scary sandwiches
scary sandwiches
Take a piece of card or paper and draw a shape of a ghost or coffin that will fit the size of the bread. Remember that the simpler the design, the easier it will be to create.
When you have made the sandwiches place the template over the bread and with the help of an adult, cut out the scary shapes. The moister the filling the better the sandwich will hold together.
Another good filling would be Tuna mayonnaise. Decorate with the sultanas for eyes in the ghosts and ketchup dribbling out the sides of the coffins. Yuck!
Ingredients
Makes 8 shapes
4 eggs
2 large tbsp mayonnaise
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 punnet cress, chopped small
16 slices Warburtons Toastie bread
Butter
For decoration
Few sultanas
Tomato ketchup.
Method
Bring a small pan of water to the boil and then gently place in the eggs with a spoon. Bring back to the boil and simmer for 10 minutes.
Drain and then run under cold water for one minute or until eggs are cold. This prevents a black line round the egg yolks.
Peel the eggs and then put into a bowl with the mayonnaise, salt and pepper. Cut up well with a knife until really small pieces and then stir
in the chopped cress.
Spread the bread with the butter and then spread over the egg mixture on half the slices of bread. Top with the other slices and then cut into the shapes you have made.
