Unusual Sandwiches

Homemade burger.

Used air fryer. Didn't have any hash browns so I put chips in the burger instead.

Sauces aioli, sweet chilli, smoked manuka BBQ, cheesy bacon

Crispy chicken patty, fries, tasty cheese

Lettuce, capsicum, cucumber, tomato

Ever considered an NZ holiday by any chance? No reason.

TBH, no, can’t say I have. I think only one family member has been anywhere near NZ- a cousin of mine went to Australia 5+ years ago.

Yeah we just kinda pretend the great Western Dustbowl doesn't exist except when rugby season rolls round.

So have you ever stopped to consider the origins of your sandwich?

I was having a simple grilled cheese for lunch today and on reflection was surprised by the fundamental international fusion of it. It was:

• Tandoori-style Naan (Southwest Asia, Persian/Indian)
• Havarti cheese (Denmark)
• Provolone cheese (Italy)
• Sweet cream cow's butter (Europe, though I understand sweet cream is a bit of a US thing).

What's the most international sandwich you've had?

I have!

Off the top of my head, the most polycultural sandwiches I can recall making have been...

Oyster Dressing (Cajun/Creole)
Pork Schnitzel (German)
Lebanese Garlic Spread (Lebanon)
Toasted Rosemary & Olive Oil bread (Italy)
Brown Mustard (?)

Or:
Garlic Naan (India)
Black Forest Ham (Germany)
Danablu Blue Cheese (Denmark)
Radish sprouts (America)
Yellow Mustard (?)
Mayonnaise (?)
Black Pepper (?)

But I make sandwiches of all kinds and have a United Nations of ingredients in my fridge & pantry, so I have probably done more varied sandwiches than those.

Christmas leftovers sandwich for Mom:

“Creole” roast beef & gravy and Lebanese garlic spread on toasted Ciabatta roll

Also pictured: tabouli, babaganoush, and Tostitos

 

[Dannyalcatraz]

Sandwich: toasted ciabatta bun, ham, Lebanese garlic spread, Maille Dijon mustard, fruit glaze from ham

Foreground: green bean macque choux

The combination of flavors on the sandwich reminded me very strongly of the ham crepes from The Magic Pan restaurant.

Hiya!

Can't believe I haven't tried this until just two days ago...

Whole-Cranberry 'sauce'
Thick Sliced Canadian Maple-Smoked Back Bacon
..on two slices of 60% whole wheat with mayonnaise and some pepper.

Messy, but DANG tasty!
