Potato Sandwiches
Description
Perfect for the table and with drinks. To keep the sandwiches together well, secure them with toothpicks or skewers. Then cut them in half. Serve on lettuce leaves freshly made, while still warm! Experiment with fillings — you can enhance the flavor with smoked foods or choose exotic vegetables. Try it and share your impressions.

Step 2
Cut the potatoes in half. Scoop out the insides with a teaspoon. Generously brush with olive oil not only the inside of the potato but also its “edges.” Place in the oven for 5–7 minutes until a light crust forms.

Step 3
Season the potatoes with salt and pepper to taste. At this stage, the potatoes should already be cooked and tender.

Step 5
Spread the potatoes with sauce or ketchup. You can make different sandwiches—for example, some with tomato sauce, others with mayonnaise, or spread one potato half with one sauce and the other with another. Do it to taste! On each half, on top of the sauce, add vegetables: cucumbers, cherry tomatoes, and onion.
