The Elsa Greer – A Roast Beef Sandwich

Elsa Greer4

A roast beef sandwich names after Elsa Greer, the villain in Five Little Pigs

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 red onion, thinly sliced
  • 1 tbsp red wine vinegar
  • 1/2 tsp sugar
  • 2 slices of bread – I used a potato and rosemary bread
  • Butter
  • 23 slices of roast beef 
  • Slices of Tomato
  • Sprigs of watercress
  • Blue cheese, crumbled, as much or as little as you like
  • Horseradish cream 
  • Mayonnaise

To Serve (Optional)

  • Potato Chips
  • Beer (preferably non-poisoned)

Instructions

Place your onions, red wine vinegar and sugar into a small bowl and allow to quickly pickle.  You can leave this as long as you like but they will be ready after 30 mins.

Mix the mayo and the horseradish in a small bowl.  Start with a tablespoon of mayo to half a teaspoon of horseradish but feel free to adjust to your level of bite!

Spread one slice of bread with butter and the other with the horseradish mayo.

Layer your your watercress, tomato, cheese beef and drained onion onto one slice of bread and top with the other.  

Serve with chips and a cold beer!

Enjoy while reading Five Little Pigs! 

Notes

If you don’t like blue cheese, you could use a nice sharp cheddar.

Hate horseradish?  Or mayo?  Sub in some mustard.

No Watercress?  Iceberg or Cos will work.
