Ingredients
- 2 cups finely sliced red onions (Ettrick Gardens)
- 2 Tablespoons oil
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 2 pieces beef schnitzel (Blue Mountain)
- 1 clove garlic
- Salt, pepper, and oil - to season the meat
- 1 Tablespoon olive oil (Dunford Grove)
- 1 loaf Turkish bread (Beano’s Bakery)
- 1 ½ cups shredded spinach
- Kasundi (The Port Larder)
- Butter
Steak Sandwich with Caramalised Red Onion and Kasundi
Method
- Add red onions, oil, and salt to a saucepan and set it on the lowest temperature
- Keep it on low, and stir occasionally
- Cook until the onions are sticky, transparent and caramelized
- This process will take approximately 40 minutes
- Don’t be tempted to turn up the heat; this process needs to done low and slow
- Set aside
- Heat a cast iron, or heavy pan to a high heat
- Prepare the schnitzel by seasoning it liberally with salt and pepper
- Drizzle the meat with oil, and cook in the hot pan, turn once well browned (this should take 40 seconds -1 minute), and repeat on the second side
- Remove from the pan immediately after cooking
- Drizzle 1 TB olive oil on a chopping board, and finely grate in the clove of garlic
- Rest the meat in the garlic oil, turning it to coat
- Cut the bread into desired size for your sandwich
- I like to cut a wide piece and then slice in half horizontally
- Warm in low oven, or toast if desired
- Build the sandwich starting with a generous layer of Kasundi, followed by the spinach, then the schnitzel, onions, and butter the top piece of bread
- Enjoy!
