Ingredients

• 4 slices Rye bread
• 200 grams Corned beef
• 4 slices Swiss cheese
• 120 grams Sauerkraut
• 2 tablespoons Butter
• 2 tablespoons Grainy Dijon mustard
• 2 tablespoons Mayonnaise
• 0.5 teaspoons Caraway seeds (optional)

Directions

Step 1

In a small bowl, mix the grainy Dijon mustard and mayonnaise to create the tangy sandwich sauce. Set aside.

Step 2

Lay out the slices of rye bread. Spread a layer of the mustard-mayo sauce on one side of each slice.

Step 3

On two slices of bread (sauce side up), layer 100 grams of corned beef, 2 slices of Swiss cheese, and half of the sauerkraut on each.

Step 4

If using, sprinkle a small pinch of caraway seeds over the sauerkraut for extra flavor.

Step 5

Top the sandwiches with the remaining two slices of bread, with the sauce side facing down.

Step 6

Spread butter on the outside of each slice of bread (both top and bottom).

Step 7

Heat a skillet or griddle over medium heat. Place the sandwiches in the skillet and cook for 3-4 minutes on each side, pressing gently with a spatula, until the bread is golden brown and the cheese has melted.

Step 8

Remove the sandwiches from the skillet, let them rest for 1 minute, then slice each one in half.

Step 9

Serve warm with potato chips or a pickle on the side for the full experience!
