Best Pastrami Sandwiches With Onion Rings And Quick Pickles Recipes

PASTRAMI-AND-PICKLE SANDWICH

Steps:

• In a small saucepan, bring vinegar, sugar, 1 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon pepper, and 1 cup water to a boil over medium-high. Reduce to a simmer and cook until sugar is dissolved, about 2 minutes. Remove from heat and add cucumbers. Cover and let cool until cucumbers are softened, 10 minutes.
• Assemble sandwiches with bread, mustard, pastrami, Swiss, pickles, and mayonnaise.

PASTRAMI EGG ROLLS

Steps:

• Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the onion, celery and salt and cook until soft, 5 to 7 minutes. Add the garlic and caraway and cook for another minute. Add the pastrami and cook until heated. Turn off the heat and stir in the shredded cabbage. Season with soy sauce, apple cider vinegar and black pepper. Taste and adjust as desired.
• Mix together the flour and 1 tablespoon water in a small bowl to form a paste (it will act as your glue). To fill an eggroll, orient a wrapper in front of you like a diamond. Spread a horizontal line of filling across the bottom half of the wrapper, then fold the bottom corner up over it. Fold in the outer sides, then roll up the rest of the way, sealing well with the flour paste. Repeat with remaining wrappers and filling.
• Heat 1/2-inch canola oil in a heavy bottomed pot to between 360 and 370 degrees F.
• Fry eggrolls until the outsides are golden brown, turning once, for a few minutes on each side. Transfer to a paper towel or wire rack, let cool slightly and serve with mustard.

FRIED CHEESY PICKLES

Steps:

• Pour 2 inches oil into a large pot and heat to 360 degrees F. Line a plate with a paper towel.
• Stir together the ranch dressing and sriracha to taste in a bowl. Set aside.
• Drain the pickles and use a paper towel to pat off any excess moisture (I like to save the brine and use it again!). Wrap each pickle in a slice of cheese, then fold and roll the cheese-wrapped pickle in an egg roll wrapper. Fold up the left side, then the right and roll up tightly like a burrito, using a bit of water on your finger to seal the sides.
• Working in batches to not overcrowd the pot, fry the pickles until golden brown and crispy on all sides, 2 to 3 minutes. Transfer to the lined plate to drain and cool slightly. Slice in half crosswise and serve with the Sriracha ranch.

QUICK PICKLES

Steps:

• Combine the vinegar, sugar, crushed red pepper flakes, seeds and dill with 1/2 cup water in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil, then remove from the heat.
• Toss together the cucumber, jalapeño if using and onion, then transfer to a wide-mouth quart size Mason jar. Carefully pour over the warm vinegar mixture.
• Cover and refrigerate for at least 12 hours or up to 7 days.
