These Duchess Of York Tea Sandwiches are an absolute treasure of a find. A little trouble to make but well worth the effort. Ingredients:
1 hard-boiled egg; peeled |
1/2 teaspoon curry powder |
1 tablespoon mayonnaise |
1/8 teaspoon salt |
1/8 teaspoon fine ground white pepper |
2 slices soft whole wheat sandwich bread; crusts off |
2 large asparagus spears; trimmed peeled and steamed |
Directions:
1. Mash egg with fork and add curry powder, mayonnaise and salt and pepper to taste. Mix thoroughly.
2. Use extra-thin sliced soft bread. Trim the crusts from the bread.
3. Divide spread equally between two slices of bread and spread it over surface, leaving one edge clean.
4. Arrange cooked asparagus spears at edge of each slice, opposite the clean edge and roll up to enclose filling.*
5. Wrap rolls in plastic or wax paper and chill for at least an hour.
6. Using a very sharp knife, cut each roll into 4 bite-sized sandwiches.
7. Serve cut-end up.
8. *Note: You'll need to use fresh, soft bread to make the rolls and not have splits in the bread.
