Smørrebrød

Open-faced sandwich.

10 minutes
Serves 2
Lunch

Instructions

  1. 1

    Slice the rye bread thickly (about 1/2 inch thick). The bread should be dense, seeded, and slightly sour.

  2. 2

    Spread a generous, even layer of softened cultured butter completely to the edges of each slice (this prevents the bread from getting soggy).

  3. 3

    Gently fold the roast beef slices and arrange them decoratively on top of the buttered bread. Give them height rather than laying them flat.

  4. 4

    Dollop a tablespoon of remoulade in the center of the roast beef on each sandwich.

  5. 5

    Sprinkle a generous handful of crispy fried onions over the remoulade.

  6. 6

    Garnish with a sprig of fresh dill or chervil, and serve immediately with a knife and fork.
