Ingredients

  • ½ lb pastrami
  • 1 hoagie roll
  • 1 cup french fries
  • 2 tbsp ketchup
  • 1 cup beef broth
  • 1 tbsp yellow mustard

Instructions

  1. 1

    Preheat oven to 400°F. Spread the 1 cup french fries on a baking sheet and bake until golden and crispy, about 20 minutes, shaking halfway.

  2. 2

    While fries bake, warm the 1 cup beef broth in a small saucepan over medium heat until steaming, about 5 minutes. Keep warm for au jus.

  3. 3

    In a skillet over medium-high heat, add the 0.5 lb pastrami and cook until heated through and edges are slightly crispy, about 3-4 minutes per side.

  4. 4

    Slice the hoagie roll open and toast it in the oven or a toaster until lightly golden, about 2 minutes.

  5. 5

    Spread the 1 tbsp yellow mustard on the bottom half of the roll, pile the warm pastrami on top, and close the sandwich.

  6. 6

    Serve the sandwich with the crispy fries, a side of warm au jus for dipping, and the 2 tbsp ketchup on the side.
