Yoghurt Sandwich

I always say that if I was left stranded on an island and had only one choice of food to survive, it would be yoghurt! As illogical as it might sound, wouldn't you agree? Well, at least for me, it is one of the most nourishing and versatile basic foods that you can transform into a variety of nourishing dishes.

This time around, Rahul thought about trying something different. Imagine a panini but with a dairy twist ⁠— it's delicious, super easy to make, and you can use ingredients that are readily-available in your kitchen. The only thing we recommend is that you enjoy this sandwich within a few hours of straining the yoghurt as it gets tart the longer you keep it. So what are you waiting for? Dive in and get your groove on!
