Served on delicious Dempster’s® White Bread, our Vegetarian Portobello Mushroom Reuben Sandwich is a tasty take on the deli classic. With all of the flavour and none of the meat, this delicious variation is a savoury grilled sandwich you can really sink your teeth into. Serves one.
INGREDIENTS
- 2 slices Dempster’s® White Bread, toasted
- 1 tbsp (15 mL) canola oil
- 1 portobello mushroom, gills removed, and thinly sliced
- 1/4 tsp (1 mL) smoked paprika
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- 1/2 tsp (2 mL) pepper
- Pinch salt
- 2 tbsp (30 mL) Russian dressing
- 2 slices Swiss cheese
- 1/4 cup (60 mL) sauerkraut
DIRECTIONS
- Heat oil in large skillet set over medium-high heat; cook mushroom slices, smoked paprika and garlic for 5 to 8 minutes or until golden brown and tender. Season with pepper and salt.
- Spread Russian dressing over one slice of bread. Top with sautéed mushroom slices, Swiss cheese and sauerkraut. Cap with remaining slice of bread.
- To serve, cut in half.
Tips:
Season mushroom slices with 1 tsp (5 mL) Montreal-style steak seasoning or ground pickling spice instead of smoked paprika if desired.
To remove gills from the mushroom, use a spoon to scrape the dark brown part on the stem side of the mushroom; discard gills. The gills are edible but leach an unappealing brown liquid when cooked.
