Sandwich Ingredients

Fries Ingredients

Method

Fries Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Potatoes

    Wash and peel the potatoes. Cut them into thin strips to resemble fries.

  2. 2

    Heat the Oil

    In a large pot, heat the oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).

  3. 3

    Fry the Potatoes

    Carefully add the potato strips to the hot oil in batches. Fry until golden brown and crispy, about 5-7 minutes. Remove and drain on paper towels. Season with salt to taste.

Sandwich Directions

  1. 4

    Sauté the Vegetables

    In a skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the sliced bell pepper and onion, and sauté for about 5 minutes until softened. Add the sliced zucchini and yellow squash, and continue to sauté for another 5 minutes. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.

  2. 5

    Assemble the Sandwich

    Spread pesto sauce on one side of each slice of focaccia bread. On one slice, layer the sautéed vegetables followed by fresh baby spinach. Top with the second slice of focaccia, pesto side down.

  3. 6

    Grill the Sandwich

    In the same skillet, grill the sandwich on medium heat for about 3-4 minutes on each side until the bread is golden and crispy, and the contents are heated through.
