Preparation Steps

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Gather all the ingredients including rye bread, Krakovska ham, sauerkraut, Swiss cheese, Ukrainian dressing, dijon mustard, and pickles.

  2. 2

    Assemble the Sandwich

    Lay out 2 slices of rye bread. Spread 1 tablespoon of Ukrainian dressing on each slice. Layer the Krakovska ham evenly on one slice.

  3. 3

    Add Toppings

    Top the ham with sauerkraut, followed by the Swiss cheese slices. Add dijon mustard on top of the cheese and place pickle slices over the mustard.

  4. 4

    Finish the Sandwich

    Place the second slice of rye bread on top, dressing side down, to complete the sandwich.

  5. 5

    Grill the Sandwich

    Heat a skillet over medium heat. Add a little butter or oil if desired. Grill the sandwich for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until the bread is golden brown and the cheese is melted.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Remove the sandwich from the skillet, slice it in half, and serve warm with extra pickles on the side.
