Try This At Home

February 26, 2006|By ATLANTA JOURNAL-CONSTITUTION

Any type of leftover roast, be it turkey breast or beef, would work in this hearty sandwich.

For the most flavor, remove from refrigerator 30 minutes before serving and let the sandwich warm to room temperature.

ROAST PORK SANDWICH WITH ONION AND ROSEMARY

MAKES 1 SANDWICH

TOTAL TIME: 5 MINUTES

lettuce

2 ounces leftover roast pork loin, sliced

2 slices olive bread

2 teaspoons onion marmalade or jam

1 teaspoon fresh rosemary, minced

tomato slices

freshly ground pepper

Press lettuce leaf with paper towel to remove all surface moisture.

Build sandwich by placing pork and the dry lettuce leaf on the bread slices, then spread onion jam over the pork, sprinkle with rosemary and place tomato atop lettuce leaf.

Top with pepper. Combine the halves. (Keeping the jam off the bread helps prevent it from turning soggy if preparing sandwich the night before.)
