Ingredients
- 4 slices sourdough bread
- 200 grams pastrami
- 4 slices Swiss cheese
- 2 medium pickles
- 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1 pinch salt
- 1 pinch black pepper
Directions
Step 1
Finely slice the pickles into thin rounds and set aside.
Step 2
In a small bowl, mix the mayonnaise and Dijon mustard until smooth.
Step 3
Spread a thin, even layer of the mayo-mustard mixture on one side of each slice of sourdough bread.
Step 4
Place a slice of Swiss cheese on the unspread side of two bread slices.
Step 5
Evenly distribute the pastrami over the cheese and layer the pickle slices on top.
Step 6
Season with a pinch of salt and black pepper, then top with another slice of Swiss cheese.
Step 7
Lay the remaining slices of bread, mayo-mustard side out, over the fillings to form sandwiches.
Step 8
Heat a large skillet or frying pan over medium heat and add 1 tablespoon of butter.
Step 9
Once the butter is melted and bubbling, carefully place the sandwiches in the pan.
Step 10
Cook for 3-4 minutes on each side, pressing gently with a spatula to encourage even browning, until the bread is golden brown and crispy and the cheese is melted.
Step 11
Add the remaining butter to the pan when flipping the sandwiches for the second side.
Step 12
Remove the sandwiches from the pan and let them cool for 1-2 minutes before slicing in half and serving.
