Criollo Sandwich Ingredients

Method

Sandwich Preparation Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Onions

    Heat olive oil or butter in a skillet over medium heat. Slice the onion thinly and add it to the skillet. Sauté until they are golden brown and caramelized, about 10-15 minutes.

  2. 2

    Assemble the Sandwich

    On one slice of bread, layer the pastrami, Swiss cheese, sautéed onions, lettuce, tomato (sliced), and pickles. Spread mustard on the other slice of bread and place it on top to complete the sandwich.

  3. 3

    Toast the Sandwich (Optional)

    For a toasted sandwich, place it in a skillet or a sandwich press over medium heat for about 3-5 minutes on each side, or until the bread is golden and the cheese melts.

  4. 4

    Prepare Bodega Fries

    Fry or bake the bodega fries according to package instructions or until they are crispy and golden.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Serve the Criollo sandwich with a side of bodega fries.
