A Reuben (Of Sorts) by Max Halley

Featuring Walkers Worcester Sauce Flavour French Fries Crisps

Whether you’re on a jolly in New York or hiding from the rain in a caravan in Skegness, there’s always time for a A Reuben sandwich (Of Sorts). There is a good reason why the Reuben has become one of the world’s great lunches and SURELY this is one of the greatest ever uses of crisps in a sandwich!?

Luckily for us enthusiasts, most of the supermarkets now sell packs of sliced pastrami or salt beef, making this a more achievable lunch at home than it might once have been.

Serves: 2

Requires Cooking: Yes

Vegetarian Option: No

Ingredients

4 slices pastrami (or salt beef)
2 heaped tablespoons sauerkraut, in a sieve to dry out a bit
1 teaspoon of your favourite mustard (I like the Americantype)
1 slice of good melting cheese (emmenthal or something like that)
1 tablespoon mayo
1 tablespoon ketchup
A few shakes Tabasco
Crushed Walkers Worcester Sauce Flavour French Fries Crisps
2 slices rye bread (if available) or seeded loaf

1 Toast both slices of the bread in your toaster and allow them to cool.
2 Pop the grill on.
3 Mix the ketchup and mayo together, shake in some Tabasco and spread on both pieces of bread.
4 Layer the bottom slice with the meat and sauerkraut, mustard accordingly and pop the slice of cheese on top of that.
5 Put that half under the gril until the cheese has completely melted.
6 Using a spatula, put the hot half on a chopping board and scatter the crushed Walkers Worcester Sauce Flavour French Fries Crisps all over the top half.
7 Lid on, bit of a squish and thank your lucky stars you decided to have this Reuben sandwich for lunch.
