Ingredients

  • 4 slices dark rye bread
  • 4 tablespoons Russian dressing
  • 6 slices corned beef
  • ½ cup sauerkraut
  • 6 slices Swiss cheese

Russian dressing

  • ¼ cup whole egg mayonnaise
  • 1 tablespoon white or brown onion finely minced
  • 1 tablespoon tomato sauce
  • 1 tablespoon hot chilli sauce e.g. sriracha
  • ½ teaspoon worcestershire sauce
  • 1 teaspoon hot sauce e.g. tabasco
  • 1 teaspoon horseradish cream
  • ¼ teaspoon paprika

Instructions

  • To make the Russian dressing, whisk together all ingredients in a small bowl.
  • Heat grill to 180ºC. Place bread on a lined baking tray and grill until golden brown on one side - approximately five minutes. Flip the bread slices over to the softer side.
  • Smear one tablespoon of Russian dressing on each slice of bread. On one side layer corned beef, followed by sauerkraut and two slices of the Swiss cheese. On the topside of the bread, place the remaining one slice atop of the Russian dressing.
  • Grill for 3-5 minutes, until cheese is oozy and melted. Sandwich both sides together. Spear with a bamboo skewer to keep in shape. Serve with pickles or cornichons.
