Leftovers Gone Wild: Broccolini, Fennel, Carrot, and Avocado Explosion

March 4, 2010 9:06 pm · Posted by nancyeinhart

If you thought leftover sandwiches couldn't get weirder than pulled pork and zucchini, think again. These fillings were so bizarre, I wasn't even sure if I'd be able to dig in without total disaster ensuing. But not only was it edible, it was worth repeating.

Like most leftover sandwiches, this one started with a yummy dinner: cod sauteed with broccolini, fennel, and carrots and served in a light broth. Come sandwich time, I combined the leftover vegetables with sliced avocado and served it on Acme's olive bread with a bit of Dijon. The salty tang of the olives was the perfect counterpunch to the sweetness of the fennel and carrots, with the avocado bridging the gap. Truly a flavor explosion.

Before our trip to Dublin, I had my sights set on one sandwich: the Paddy Jack farmers lunch at the Temple Bar Saturday food market. We'd been salivating in anticipation ever since Andrew read about it in the New York Times, and it didn't let us down. Click on the gallery below for all the delicious details.
