Sophie Grigson’s Sandwich, Spiced Butter
Preparation:
10 mins
Cooking:
5 mins
Serves:
2
Ingredients
- Per person:
- 2 slices of great bread
- a big handful of watercress
- For the butter:
- 1 teaspoon cumin seed
- 1 teaspoon coriander seeds
- ½ teaspoon fennel seeds
- 1 teaspoon smoked pimenton
- 150g softened butter
Method
To make the butter, dry-fry the cumin, coriander and fennel seeds until they give out a seductive waft of incense. Tip into a bowl, then leave to cool. Grind to a powder and mix with the pimenton. Beat into the butter.
Now butter the bread generously, and sandwich together with a really generous helping of watercress clamped between. Cut in half. Eat.
