Ingredients
Method
PINEAPPLE RELISH: Heat oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat; add onion, garlic and chilli. Cook, stirring, for 5 minutes or until onion is translucent. Stir in the coriander seeds, cook until fragrant, then add the remaining ingredients. Season to taste, bring to the boil, reduce heat to medium and cook for 10 minutes or until jammy and thickened slightly. Transfer to a sterilised jar and cool to room temperature. Pineapple relish will keep refrigerated for 2 weeks.
Heat a large frying pan to medium heat or preheat a sandwich press.
Combine the butter and paprika in a bowl and season to taste. Spread bread generously with paprika butter. Place half the slices butter-side down and spread with mustard, then layer with half the cheese, all the ham, some of the Pineapple Relish and then remaining cheese. Top with remaining bread slices, butter-side up.
Pan fry or cook in the sandwich press until bread is crisp and golden-brown and cheese is melted.
Abbott’s Bakery is for those who see the kitchen as a playground to feed their creativity and evoke delight. The ones who relish in their Rueben-making, turn up their toaster dials with oomph and add an extra smear of pesto to an already magnificent sandwich.
