Time 40m

Yield Serves 2

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 (8-9") soft hoagie roll or small Italian loaf, split in half lengthwise
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1 small onion, finely chopped
8 ounces white or crimini mushrooms, trimmed, finely chopped
Kosher salt, freshly ground black pepper
1/4 cup ketchup
1 cup grated part-skim mozzarella
2 slices deli ham, torn in half
Mayonnaise, thinly sliced chives, french fried onions (such as French's), drained canned corn kernels, and/or chopped pickles (for serving)

Steps:

Preheat oven to 375°F; line a rimmed baking sheet with foil. Place bread halves cut side up on sheet.
Melt butter in a medium skillet over medium heat. Cook onion, stirring, until translucent, 3-4 minutes. Add mushrooms and lightly season with salt and pepper; cook, stirring occasionally, until liquid is evaporated and mixture cooks down to a spreadable consistency, about 10 minutes more. Let cool.
Spread 2 Tbsp. ketchup on each piece of bread. Divide mushroom mixture between pieces. Sprinkle mozzarella over each, leaving a bit in reserve. Top cheese with ham, then sprinkle ham with remaining cheese. Bake zapiekanki until bread is golden and crisp and cheese is lightly browned and bubbly, 12-14 minutes. Top with mayonnaise and your choice of toppings.
