I've made a couple changes based on personal preferences and such. This can be served with an au jus broth made from beef broth, garlic, and a splash (or more) of ale. I like it with cabbage soup. But, this sandwich is great on its own as well. Enjoy.
Ingredients:
4 teaspoons butter, divided
2 cups thinly sliced sweet onions
1 cup thinly sliced apple
12 ounces shaved pastrami (turkey pastrami is great, too)
4 teaspoons dijon mustard, divided
4 ounces thinly sliced baby swiss cheese
8 slices pumpernickel bread
Directions:
1. In large non-stick skillet, melt 2 teaspoons of butter and saute onion, stirring frequently, until golden brown and tender. Remove from pan.
2. Spread the remaining 2 teaspoons of butter evenly over one side of each piece of bread. Place two slices butter side down in pan. Spread about a teaspoon of mustard on each. Layer 1/4 of the meat, onion, apples, and cheese (in that order) on each piece. Top with another slice of bread butter side up. Fry until bottom slice of bread is crispy and flip the sandwiches. Continue to fry until crispy and cheese is melted.
3. Repeat with remaining ingredients to make two more sandwiches. Slice diagonally and serve.
