Great recipe for Tex's Pastrami Reuben ('Rachel') πππ²π§. Instead of the classic corned beef and sauerkraut, the Rachel is usually made with turkey or pastrami and coleslaw. Both sandwiches are made with Swiss cheese and rye bread.
To get started with this particular recipe, we have to prepare a few components. You can have tex's pastrami reuben ('rachel') πππ²π§ using 7 ingredients and 11 steps. Here is how you cook it.
The ingredients needed to make Tex's Pastrami Reuben ('Rachel') πππ²π§:
- Prepare 2 slices seedless rye bread
- Take 4-5 slices pastrami
- Make ready to taste Swiss cheese
- Take 3 tablespoon vegetable oil for frying
- Make ready to taste sauerkraut (see my recipe 'Tex's Small Batch Sauerkraut' in my profile)
- Prepare to taste dressing (I'm using ranch, but the traditional dressing is Russian)
- Prepare to taste sea (or kosher) salt and freshly ground black pepper to season
Place pastrami down the center, dividing evenly between buns. Top with sauerkraut/onion mixture, then the sauce, then top with cheese. The Rachel sandwich is the cousin sandwich to the Reuben β that American Jewish deli staple made with rye bread, corned beef, sauerkraut, Swiss cheese, and Russian dressing (although, these days, you're just as likely to find it made with Thousand Island). Instead of corned beef, the Rachel calls for pastrami, and subs coleslaw for the sauerkraut.
Steps to make Tex's Pastrami Reuben ('Rachel') πππ²π§:
- Pan fry your bread on one side in a skillet on a high heat
- Slice the Swiss thinly
- Remove from heat, and smear both sides of the toasted side with dressing (I've seen recipes that use Thousand Island, or horseradish instead of Russian). Add the pastrami to the dressed side of one slice. Reduce the heat of your skillet to a medium low heat
- Put the sauerkraut in the pan and add the sliced cheese on top. Cover with a pan lid and cook for 1-2 minutes
- As the cheese just starts to melt, remove it, and the sauerkraut, from the pan and position on top of the pastrami. Increase the heat in the pan to a medium high heat
- Put the base in the pan and cover with a pan lid again until the bread is toasted
- Add the lid of the sandwich and flip over on to the un-toasted side. Cook until toasted
- Finally, remove from the pan, add extra dressing if required, and serve hot
- Remember, the way to serve a Reuben or Rachel is "Axis, Neutral, Ally": Kraut, Swiss, Russian πΊ
For the dressing, mix all ingredients together and season to taste. Now, let's set the Reuben-Rachel issue straight. If the sandwich is made with corned beef, then it is a Reuben. If the sandwich is made with pastrami, then it's a Rachel. There's a bit of controversy as to who invented this sandwich, which is globally loved.
