Ingredients

  • 8 slices rye bread
  • 8 slices pastrami
  • 8 slices Swiss cheese, halved
  • 1/3 cup drained sauerkraut (50g)
  • Pickles, to serve
Russian dressing
  • 1/4 cup whole-egg mayonnaise (75g)
  • 2 teaspoons sriracha
  • 1 teaspoon horseradish cream
  • 1/2 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce

Method

  • 1
    Lightly grease and preheat a 4-hole (1/3-cup/80ml) pie maker.
  • 2
    To make the Russian dressing, stir all the ingredients together in a small bowl.
  • 3
    Roughly trim crusts from bread and discard. Roll slices with a rolling pin to flatten to 3mm thick. Line prepared holes with four thin slices of bread, pressing into base and side.

    Fold pastrami slices into quarters, placing two in each bread case. Top each one with a slice of cheese, a quarter of the sauerkraut, 1 teaspoon Russian dressing and another slice of cheese. Top with the remaining bread slices – the bread will extend over the top. Close lid to seal the edges, then immediately open again. Spray tops of pies with oil. Close lid. Cook toasties for 7 minutes or until bread is toasted and cheese is melted.

    Serve toasties with remaining dressing and pickles.
