Fried Egg Reuben Ingredients

Method

Fried Egg Reuben Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare Fries

    Cook the fries according to package instructions until golden and crispy. Set aside.

  2. 2

    Cook Pastrami and Sauerkraut

    In a skillet over medium heat, add the pastrami and sauerkraut. Cook for about 3-5 minutes until heated through.

  3. 3

    Fry Eggs

    In a separate pan, melt the butter over medium heat. Crack the eggs into the pan and cook until the whites are set but the yolks are still runny. Season with salt and pepper.

  4. 4

    Assemble the Sandwich

    On one slice of bread, layer the pastrami and sauerkraut mixture, top with Swiss cheese, and then add the second slice of bread on top.

  5. 5

    Grill the Sandwich

    In the same skillet used for the pastrami, grill the sandwich on both sides until the bread is golden brown and the cheese is melted.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Slice the sandwich in half, place the fried egg on top, and drizzle with Thousand Island dressing. Serve with fries on the side.
