NEW YORKER ONION SANDWICH

This is from Graham Kerr, the man who said, "If you are out of salted nuts, the best appetiser is champagne!" This is from Volume 1 of his CBC Television Cookbooks. I also have Volume 3 and it was published in 1969, so this recipe is some kind of late 1960s cocktail party creation. Graham's recipe notes include: "At heart this is a dish that everyone enjoys except those with ulcers and those who have a romantic meeting with someone who isn't at the party." and, "Vodka based creations blend well." I use party rye-sized pumpernickel bread for the "brown bread rounds" he writes of; also, this recipe is for 2 people only so increase if you're serving a crowd (makes a great summer party treat) but don't make them too far ahead.

Time 15m

Yield 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

4 slices brown bread (or 2 slices if they are large)
1 tablespoon mayonnaise
4 slices onions (VERY thin!)
salt and black pepper (I like LOTS)
2 slices tomatoes
minced parsley, to garnish

Steps:

  • Cut rounds from brown bread (big enough around to hold your tomato and onion slices), or use party rye-sized pumpernickel bread with crusts trimmed (and smaller tomato and onion slices).
  • Place onion slices on one slice of bread and season with salt and pepper.
  • Sandwich bread together.
  • Spread edges of bread with mayonnaise then roll the edges in minced parsley.
  • Garnish with a slice of tomato and sprig of parsley if you like.
  • (Actually, I like to just cram the tomato into the sandwich as well--).

1 tablespoon mayonnaise or 1 tablespoon Miracle Whip
1 pinch salt

Tips:

  • Spread the Thousand Island dressing on both sides of the bread for extra flavor and moisture.
  • Toast the sandwich in a panini press or on a griddle until the cheese is melted and gooey and the bread is golden brown and crispy.
