Sandwich Ingredients

Method

Sandwich Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Wash the lettuce and tomato. Slice the tomato into thin rounds.

  2. 2

    Assemble the Sandwich

    Slice the grinder/sub bread lengthwise without cutting all the way through. Spread the mayonnaise evenly on both sides of the bread.

  3. 3

    Layer the Meats and Cheese

    Place the roast beef and roast turkey slices on one side of the bread. Top with the American cheese slices.

  4. 4

    Add Fresh Vegetables

    Layer the lettuce and tomato slices on top of the meats and cheese.

  5. 5

    Close the Sandwich

    Fold the other side of the bread over to close the sandwich. Press down gently to compact.

Fries Preparation

  1. 6

    Prepare the Oil

    In a deep fryer or large pot, heat the cooking oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).

  2. 7

    Fry the French Fries

    Add the frozen French fries to the hot oil in batches, ensuring not to overcrowd the pot. Fry for about 3-5 minutes or until golden brown.

  3. 8

    Drain and Season

    Using a slotted spoon, remove the fries from the oil and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil. Sprinkle with salt while hot.
