Pastrami And Pickle Pan Fried Sandwich Recipes

Steps:

• In a small saucepan, bring vinegar, sugar, 1 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon pepper, and 1 cup water to a boil over medium-high. Reduce to a simmer and cook until sugar is dissolved, about 2 minutes. Remove from heat and add cucumbers. Cover and let cool until cucumbers are softened, 10 minutes.
• Assemble sandwiches with bread, mustard, pastrami, Swiss, pickles, and mayonnaise.

Steps:

• Heat a flattop grill or pan on medium heat. Butter one side of each slice of bread. Set the buttered side of bread on the flattop. Add provolone to one slice and Swiss to the other slice. Grill until bread is toasted and cheese has melted, approximately 5 minutes, then remove from the flattop. Meanwhile, place pastrami on the flattop in a pile and the sauerkraut on the flattop in a separate pile. Grill both until warm, 1 1/2 to 2 minutes, then flip and warm the other side. Add mayonnaise to both pieces of bread, then add mustard to one half. Place half the pastrami on one slice and the other half on the other slice. Add sauerkraut to one half and flip the other slice on top. Cut sandwich in half and enjoy!

Steps:

• Combine the salt, granulated sugar, brown sugar, pickling spice, mustard seeds, pink curing salt, garlic and 1 tablespoon coriander in a large pot. Add 3 quarts water. Bring to a simmer and cook to dissolve the sugar and salt. Add 3 quarts cold water. Let cool to room temperature. Add the brisket, then weigh down with a plate and cover the pot. Refrigerate for 3 days. (If your refrigerator is too small to hold the pot, you can cut the brisket in half and refrigerate in 2 smaller containers as well.)
• When you are ready to cook the brisket, preheat the oven to 300 degrees F.
• Arrange a rack in a roasting pan. Bring a kettle of water to a boil. Coarsely crush the peppercorns and the remaining 1/4 cup coriander seeds in a spice grinder. Pour into a small bowl and stir in the smoked paprika. Remove the meat from the brine and rinse briefly. Pat dry. Pat the spice mixture all over and set the meat in the roasting pan, fat side up. Pour the boiling water in the bottom of the pan (don't let it touch the meat). Cover the roasting pan tightly with foil. Roast until the meat is very tender, about 3 hours. Carefully remove the foil and roast 10 more minutes to dry out the crust slightly.
• Slice the warm pastrami. Serve on rye bread with deli mustard and Onion Rings and Pickles on the side. (This pastrami can also be made ahead. To reheat, thinly slice and set over a steamer, or microwave covered with a damp paper towel.)
• Heat 1 inch oil in a pan to 350 degrees F.
• Set the flour in a bowl, eggs in a second bowl, and combine the panko and regular breadcrumbs in a third. Dredge the onions in the flour first, followed by the eggs and finally the breadcrumbs, then pan-fry until golden brown, a few minutes on each side. Remove to a rack to drain and stay crispy and season with salt.
• Combine the vinegar, salt, mustard seeds, granulated sugar, peppercorns, garlic and 1/2 cup water in a small saucepan. Layer the cucumbers, chiles and dill sprigs in a jar or other lidded container. Bring the vinegar mixture to a simmer and stir to dissolve the salt and sugar. Pour over the cucumbers. Let cool to room temperature. Refrigerate until chilled, at least 2 hours. (The pickles will keep a week or more in the refrigerator.)

Steps:

• Place the mayonnaise and custard in a bowl and mix well to combine.
• Spread one side of each slice of bread with butter and the other side with the maonnaise mixture.
• Divide the cheese, pickle and pastrami between 4 slices of bread, ensuring the buttered side is on the outside, and sandwich with the remaining bread, once again ensuring buttered side is on the outside.
• Heat a large non stick frying pan over low heat.
• Cook the sandwiches, in batches for 3-4 minutes each side or until golden and cheese is melted.

Steps:

• Preheat oven or toaster oven to 400 degrees.
• Spread one side of each bread slice with butter or margarine; place on an ungreased baking sheet.
• Place a meat slice on top of each slice of buttered bread and top with the pickle.
• "Cover up" pickle with a slice of cheese, covering up one end of the pickle and folding back a corner of the cheese, if desired.
• Bake for 7-8 minutes or until cheese is melted and edges of bread are crisp.

Steps:

• Heat a wok over high heat until hot. Drizzle the oil down the sides to coat, and then add the garlic and chiles and stir-fry quickly. Add the mustard greens and stir-fry. Sprinkle the sugar over the greens and cook, stirring constantly, until the sugar has completely dissolved and has been absorbed by the vegetables. Set aside.
• Split the rolls and stuff with the stir-fried pickled mustard greens. Top with cilantro and peanuts.

Steps:

• Heat oil over medium high heat till just starting to smoke. Fry the pastrami flipping occasionally until brown. 3 minutes.
• Deglaze pan with the water cooking over high heat until reduced. 3 minutes
• Pour the sauce into a small dipping container.
• Make a sandwich with the pastrami and bread and serve immediately.
• Vary the amount of meat per your taste.

Steps:

• Spread mayonnaise and mustard on bread. Trim cheese slices to fit bread and place on one slice. Lay pickles over cheese and top with second slice of bread.
• This is a little easier to eat if cut in half, since the pickle slices tend to want to escape.
