Time 30m

Yield 6 small sandwiches

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 pound New York strip or other steak
Salt and pepper
2 tablespoons freshly grated horseradish, from a 2-inch chunk of horseradish root
1/2 teaspoon sugar, optional
1/2 cup/4 ounces sour cream or crème fraîche
6 mini whole wheat rolls or brioche rolls
Unsalted butter, at room temperature
A few thinly sliced cornichons (optional)
2 thinly sliced jalapeños
1 large handful watercress sprigs or a combination of watercress, basil leaves and radicchio

Steps:

  • Season beef generously with salt and pepper. Cook to medium rare in a pan, under a broiler or on a grill, about 4 minutes per side depending on thickness. Set aside to cool for at least 10 minutes. Slice thinly on a bias and set aside. Blot extraneous juice with paper towels.
  • Make horseradish sauce: Put grated horseradish in a small bowl. Season with a good pinch of salt and pepper and a little sugar. Add sour cream and stir to combine.
  • Split rolls and lay them cut side up on a work surface. Butter each piece lightly, then spread with 2 teaspoons horseradish sauce.
  • Divide sliced meat among the 6 bottom roll pieces, then garnish with cornichons, jalapeño and watercress. Replace top pieces of rolls and serve.

This recipe was a bit too bland for my taste. I think it would have been better with some more seasoning.
