The trick to creating an incredible sandwich is generosity with the hero ingredient. In this case the star is the D’Orsogna Flame Roasted Sweet Dijon Mustard Leg Ham which, with its double smoking and sweet dijon flavour, gives a big nod to southern American BBQ culture.
The D’Orsogna Flame Roasted Sweet Dijon Mustard Leg Ham is available freshly sliced, exclusively at your local Woolworths Deli counter.
Flame Roasted Ham and Sourdough Sandwich
Ingredients
250g D’Orsogna Flame Roasted Sweet Dijon Mustard Leg Ham, sliced around 3mm thick (available exclusively at the Woolworths Deli counter)
2 tbsp olive oil
4 thick slices of sourdough, brushed with olive oil both sides
4 slices Monterey Jack cheese
8 sandwich sliced dill pickles
6 baby Cos lettuce, rinsed and dried
1 cup dressed slaw (see recipe below)
4-6 thick slices beef tomato
1 cob corn
4 tbsp Piccalilli or Corn Relish
Slaw
1/2 red apple sliced into thin crescents
1/2 cup Savoy cabbage, shredded thinly
½ cup red cabbage, shredded thinly
3 radishes, sliced thinly
½ cup charred corn kernels
½ cup dressing (see below)
Dressing
3/4 cup Sweet Dill and Dijon mayonnaise (or mix together mayonnaise, fresh dill and dijon mustard if you can’t find this?)
Juice of half a lemon
Salt to taste
Optional
Dill sprigs
Extra charred corn
Method
Brush your corn with a little oil then char on a BBQ grill, under a griller or in a hot pan. Allow to cool slightly then cut the kernels from the cob and set aside.
For the slaw
Toss all ingredients together in a large bowl.
Whisk the dressing ingredients together and season to taste. Add ½ a cup to the slaw and toss. Set remaining dressing aside.
Sandwich Preparation
Char the bread on a BBQ grill, under a griller or in a hot pan.
Lay out two pieces of charred bread.
Stack each slice with half the cheese, pickles, cos leaves, slaw, tomato, Piccalilli and then top with a folded abundance of Flame Roasted Ham.
Finish with extra Slaw dressing, charred corn and dill if you want to go all the way.
Close the sandwich with another charred sourdough slice, and secure a pickle on the top for effect.
