Method

Restated from the original video

  1. 1

    Stir the mayonnaise, ketchup, horseradish, Worcestershire sauce, onion and paprika together to make Russian dressing.

  2. 2

    Squeeze the sauerkraut firmly in your hands to get rid of as much brine as possible.

  3. 3

    Warm the corned beef in a dry frying pan over medium heat, turning it, until heated through, 1-2 min. Set it aside and wipe out the pan.

  4. 4

    Spread butter thinly over one face of every rye bread slice.

  5. 5

    Lay 2 slices buttered side down on a board and spread the plain side with the dressing.

  6. 6

    Pile on the corned beef, then the sauerkraut, then the Swiss cheese.

  7. 7

    Spread the plain side of the remaining 2 slices with a little more dressing and close the sandwiches, buttered side out.

  8. 8

    Set the pan over medium-low heat and cook the sandwiches until the underside is deep golden, 3-4 min.

  9. 9

    Flip, cover the pan with a lid and cook until the second side is crisp and the cheese has melted, 3-4 min.

  10. 10

    Cut each sandwich in half on the diagonal and serve hot.
