Reuben-ish sandwich With pastrami, sauerkraut and Swiss cheese


My twist on a classic New York sandwich, so big you need sticks to hold it together


Serves 1
10m
Super easy

Ingredients




  • 2 big slices rye bread, 1cm in size
  • low fat mayonnaise
  • 3 heaped tablespoons sauerkraut
  • 1 fresh red chilli, deseeded and finely sliced
  • 3 slices pastrami
  • a few gherkins
  • 60 g Swiss cheese
  • 1 handful watercress leaves, to serve
  • METHOD

    The origin of the Reuben sandwich is hotly disputed, but many New Yorkers say it began in Reuben's Deli on East 58th Street. A classic Reuben sandwich should have Thousand Island dressing, but this is my version. Try it with nice smoked ham if you can't find pastrami
    Grill the slices of bread on a griddle pan until lightly toasted on both sides then spread one side of each with mayonnaise. Put some of the sauerkraut and some of the chilli on 2 of the slices, and top with a couple of slices of pastrami. Top with the remaining sauerkraut and chilli and the sliced gherkins, then grate the Swiss cheese over the top.

    Preheat a hot grill. Place the slices with toppings under the grill until the cheese is melted and dribbling.

    Stack the sandwich together, adding a few watercress leaves and finishing with the final slice of toast. Press down lightly and use wooden skewers to hold together. Tuck in!
