REUBEN SANDWICHES

Steps:

• Preheat the broiler on high. Mix together the ketchup, mayonnaise, horseradish, shallot and a few grinds of pepper in a small bowl.
• Lay out half of the bread and divide the pastrami among the slices. Top with the sauerkraut, followed by the cheese. Arrange the open-faced sandwiches on a large rimmed baking sheet and broil a few inches from the element until the cheese is melted and browned in spots, about 3 minutes. Spread a generous amount of the Russian dressing on the remaining slices of bread and make sandwiches. Serve immediately.

REUBEN SANDWICH

Steps:

Spread 2 tablespoons of Russian dressing on each slice of bread, then top each with 1/4 pound corned beef, 1/4 cup sauerkraut and 2 slices cheese. Top each with 1 slice of bread, buttered side up. Cook until golden and crispy underneath, about 5 minutes. Flip the sandwiches and cook, pressing down gently with a spatula, until second side is golden and cheese melts, about 3 minutes more. Transfer sandwiches to plates and wipe out skillet. Repeat with the remaining bread, sauce, corned beef, sauerkraut and cheese. Serve warm.
