You could call this a German Phily Cheese Sandwich or maybe a German Reuben! :-) Either way its delicious and quite a change from the usual Brat on a Bun. When it's too hot to cook and you don't even want to light the grill, then you need to try this.It's fast and easy. Ingredients:
3 pre-cooked bratwursts or 3 kielbasa |
1 medium onion, sliced thin |
1 (15 1/2 ounce) can german potato salad |
5 slices rye bread or 5 slices pumpernickel bread |
5 slices swiss cheese |
3 tablespoons mustard (optional) |
Directions:
1. In skillet over med. heat saute the sliced onion in a little butter until soft.
2. Slice the sausage into 1/2 inch pieces (no need to remove casings, they are natural) and add to the onions. Cook to heat through. (Pre-cooked brats are not red-raw looking, but are a pale greyish-white color. If we can buy them in Mississippi, then I'm sure you have them too.) There are usually 4-5 in a package.
3. Add your German Potato Salad (do not use a mayo kind) and cook on high to evaporate some of the liquid.
4. Lightly toast your bread, spread with a little mustard, opt.
5. Place on a microwave safe plate, as many slices as you can fit.
6. With a slotted spoon divide the sausage mixture over all the bread slices.
7. Top with a slice of Swiss cheese (I like to use aged Swiss).
8. Buzz in microwave to melt the cheese or do it under the broiler. I served this with a spicy bean salad.
